Community Partners
The community plays a key part in the success of supporting military youth. Reach out to us to find out how you can help your local military youth.
educators
Military youth face challenges that their peers don't with their loved ones being away on training or deployment. Our challenge to the educators is to help us create that pillar of support.
Educators are at the forefront of support military youth. In collaboration with various state-wide agencies, trainings are provided on various topics related to supporting children of the National Guard.
The State Teen Panel has been a community that I am proud to be apart of. I look forward to every time we get to be together.
STP
This group of military connected teens are a lively bunch and provide insight into the issues their peers face. They are also challenged to be leaders in their local community and at our events. This is a great opportunity for youth to get experience that will prepare them for college, employment and beyond.
