Youth As Resources
Youth As Resources
Youth As Resources is a collaboration between the Youth Service Bureau and North Branch Area Community Education. The collaboration is funded primarily through the Initiative Foundation. YAR is community-based program that provides small grants to young people (ages 5-21) to design and carry out service projects that contribute to asset building and community change within the communities served by the North Branch Area School District.
YAR board members are primarily students from North Branch Area Schools. They sit on the board with adult members of YSB, Community Education, Chamber of Commerce, and adult community volunteers. Together, the students guide reviews of grant proposals and determine which program requests to fund.
For more information about joining YAR or to obtain a grant application, please call Community Education at 651-674-1029.
