_Empowering Young People to Make a Positive Impact_ Encouraging young people to make a positive impact in their communities and the world at large can help them develop a sense of purpose, empathy, and social responsibility. Let's explore ways to empower them: 1. Volunteer Opportunities: - Provide opportunities for young people to engage in volunteer work, community service, or social activism. 2. Social-Emotional Learning: - Teach young people skills like empathy, self-awareness, and conflict resolution to help them navigate complex social issues. 3. Environmental Awareness: - Educate young people about environmental issues and encourage sustainable practices like recycling, conservation, and eco-friendly living. 4. Community Engagement: - Encourage young people to participate in local initiatives, advocacy campaigns, or political processes that align with their values. 5. Leadership Development: - Support young people in developing leadership skills, such as public speaking, problem-solving, and collaboration. By empowering young people to make a positive impact, we can help them become active global citizens, change-makers, and future leaders.

Summer is here! For children, it's a season for play and exploration...two things we could all use more of, don't you agree?? Check out "Inclusion Through Play" - a new workshop from Inclusive Kind that fosters learning and growth through the concept of playing. In a rapidly evolving world, the need for inclusion has never been more apparent. Traditional approaches to fostering inclusive behaviours have fallen short, leaving us with an intention-action gap. Our solution, the "Inclusion Through Play" workshop, addresses this gap through Guided Play, a science-based learning model that ensures essential leadership soft skills are not only understood, but applied, in the context of each participant’s work setting. https://lnkd.in/gDc-ETN6

We've seen time and again the incredible ripple effects that happen when young people are empowered to lead. From local service projects to global advocacy campaigns, youth are at the forefront of driving positive change in their communities. They bring fresh perspectives, bold ideas, and an unshakeable belief in a better tomorrow. But they can't do it alone. It takes a village of supportive adults, organizations, and institutions to nurture the next generation of changemakers. When we invest in youth leadership through mentorship, skill-building, and meaningful opportunities to serve, everyone benefits. How will you uplift the youth leaders in your life today? Tell us here: https://lnkd.in/esidyDdd - Ryan & Thomas Growney SG’24 #NewServiceAcademy Image description: Against a dark blue background, a white box displays the words "Empowered Youth, Thriving Communities," echoed by receding layers of the same sentence, copied, which fade into transparency at the back of the white box. Behind the white box, the words "Youth Service" are repeated over and over horizontally, in an orange Varsity/Letterman-style font.
