FAQs
Who does the training?
We are so lucky to have a crack team of Champions who are really experienced in positive youth development.
Does it really not cost?
We are really lucky to have the support of the Wayne Francis Charitable Trust who has facilitated the writing of the PYDA, and is actively supporting this mahi.
We are still in the pilot stage, so we are testing the model and have chosen not to charge locally so we can get the PYD and the PYDA out there.
Who is it for?
This project is all about connecting those in role and positions that impact young people, either directly or indirectly with those who are practitioners in youth development.
