Junior Youth Empowerment Program
�Junior Youth have a long to be part of and to contribute to
something greater than themselves"
|
The Junior Youth Empowerment Program seeks to assist those
between the ages of 11 to 15 to navigate a crucial stage in
life, involving them in social interaction with older youth,
moulding their capacities for service so as to empower them to
direct their energies toward the advancement of their
communities. Emphasis is placed on developing the power of expression �vocabulary, reading comprehension, writing and eloquent speech. If youth are to live a productive and fruitful life in a world of increasing complexity, they must be able to articulate ideas with precision and clarity, to recognize the moral implications of speech and action, and to translate high ideals and noble words into constructive deeps that contribute to the progress of their communities. |
