Starting 1 July, Rotary and Rotaract clubs can designate a contact person for “Programs for Young Leaders!”
Who are Programs for Young Leaders contacts? They will facilitate connections among a club’s youth programs leaders, program participants, and the larger Rotary community.
The people appointed to this role will also amplify ideas and input from young leaders and foster the creation of safe and inclusive programs.
When you designate a Programs for Young Leaders contact for your club, that person will receive updates from Rotary International, information about activities and events, and other support.
Your club may already have one or more elected or appointed roles such as Club Interact Chair, Club Youth Exchange Officer, RYLA Chair, Youth Services, or New Generations Chairs with clearly defined responsibilities. This role is to identify one person in your club to receive important information and updates from Rotary. This new role is not designed to take on new or additional operations or administration responsibility of young leader programs but to facilitate better communication between your club and Rotary.
