Additional Notes:
The use of social media is essential with this age group. A required weekly check in with
either the pastor or CEC representative (TBA) would ensure that any needs of the youth
and program are being addressed in a timely manner. The additional 10 hours per quarter
would allow for special youth programs which the Youth Leader would be responsible
for coordinating. The valid driver’s license takes into account that some activities happen
off the church grounds and the youth leader needs to help with transportation.
