Why Youth Service Learning Programs?

Through our Youth Leadership Program, teens develop and strengthen the competencies needed to become successful, productive adults. We do so by providing young people with intensive skill-building, leadership training activities, as well as opportunities to turn these skills into actions. Funding for North Star's youth development and youth leadership program is provided in part through the Arizona Department of Health Services Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program.

Girl Talk is a positive weekly mentoring program led by high school girls to help middle school girls to build self-esteem, develop leadership, and encourage community service.
                    

Girl Talk provides the opportunity for middle school girls to hear the right messages fro the high school girls (in partnership with teachers, coaches, and guidance counselors) by whom they are so influenced.
