For Our Kids

In the metro Atlanta area, Foreverfamily has several programs designed to nurture our children socially, emotionally, and educationally in an enriching environment.

Youth Ambassadors

Youth Ambassadors provides an opportunity for school-aged youth to identify issues within their communities. They are given opportunities to work collaboratively with their peers, identifying specific issues, and implementing community service projects that respond to the issue(s).

Youth Ambassadors focuses on developing public speaking skills, leadership, project management, teamwork, and problem-solving.

When:

Goals:

Youth Ambassadors provides an opportunity for school-aged youth, grades 1-12, to identify their communities’ issues. Working collaboratively with their peers, they are tasked with selecting 1-3 specific issues and planning, implementing, and participating in community service projects that respond to the issue(s).

Description:

YEZ 2016 Summit Flyer

Youth Ambassadors is a 5 member design team consisting of Foreverfamily program participants, who serve as the Youth Ambassadors officers and hold positions of president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, and member at large. They help in recruiting youth participation within the organization and the community. The design team will participate in an overnight leadership intensive. Youth Ambassadors will focus on developing public speaking skills, leadership, project management, teamwork, and problem-solving through guest speakers, icebreakers, and supplemental workshops.

Our program will allow participants to get to know their community better, understand its challenges, and organize activities that will get many youth involved.
