In FYs 2004 and 2005, FYSB continued to both administer its RHY programs and enhance their effectiveness through related initiatives that promoted Positive Youth Development. In all its grant programs, outreach, and collaborations, FYSB has used the Positive Youth Development approach to foster improved support systems for youth and families.
At the core of FYSB’s activities during these two Fiscal Years was a focus on promoting the youth development approach and building capacity to monitor services provided through FYSB programs. Through these activities, FYSB seeks to help communities give all young people access to what they need to grow into healthy adults, particularly by strengthening the services provided through FYSB-funded programs.
