Youth Community Engagement
Practical community experience starts with participation.
Youth Community Engagement gives Youth Thrivers practical opportunities to learn how community initiatives and not-for-profit activities come together.
Through hands-on learning, guidance and collaborative activities, participants gain experience by contributing, planning, working with others and seeing how community-focused work happens in practice.
