The Youth Center is run by a Youth Development Specialist (YDS). The YDS in each village not only oversees the Youth Center, they also work with enrolled youth on creating a long-term career plan.  The YDS works with each individual youth in building job skills, and assists with academics to help youth in reaching their career goals.  The YDS is also a mentor and role model to the youth.  They encourage healthy, drug-free lifestyles by coordinating drug-free events at the Youth Center, such as dances and family game nights. 

The YDS also obtains information on opportunities for youth such as Leadership Conferences, basketball tournaments, internships and career opportunities... and recruits youth to participate.
