The goal of the UDETC Youth initiative is to provide youth (ages 14-17) with effective prevention tools and strong leadership skills to support their work toward implementing successful environmental prevention. Empowerment is the core of the initiative. With that goal in mind, we are developing a National UDETC Youth Council. Membership will include youth (ages 14-17) representing schools, coalitions, service and faith organizations, youth leadership groups and law enforcement agencies. The Council will be structured for growth, commitment and empowerment with a goal to engage youth from across the country and support them as they learn and share their leadership skills in preventing underage drinking. If you are interested in participating on UDETC’s National UDETC Youth Council the application for the National UDETC Youth Council Application Form along with the Youth Skill and Interest Survey are available for you to download.
If you are interested in being part of the youth initiative but don’t want to commit to the Youth Council please fill out the Skill and Interest Survey and you can work on specific tasks throughout the year. Applications are reviewed 2-3 weeks from receipt and decisions will be sent out no later than 4 weeks from receipt. Mailed or faxed applications are also accepted.
