-
Youth Sponsorship plays a very important role in the moving process. Many questions and concerns are expressed when families move. For youth, the fear of the unknown is a scary and a very real concern. Here are some examples:
- Who will be my friends?
- What will my new school be like?
- What activities/sports are available?
- Will I fit in?
- What are the other kids wearing?
A Youth Sponsor will help answer these questions and many more. Their job is to help eliminate the unknowns, and build a friendship prior to the newcomer's arrival to the area. The most important part of being a Youth Sponsor is to be a friend and make the newcomer feel welcomed at Fort Gregg-Adams, Virginia. A Youth Sponsor will be able to introduce the newcomer at school, to friends and at the Youth Center.
Local Youth Sponsorship- If you are moving to this area and are interested in obtaining a Youth Sponsor for your child please call the Fort Gregg-Adams Youth Center at +1 (804)734-2870 or the School Liaison Officer at +1 (804)765-3813.
- If you are living in this area now and your child would like to serve as a Youth Sponsor, become a member of the Fort Gregg-Adams Youth Center, and get acquainted with the program activities visit the Fort Lee Youth Center or call (804) 734-2870.
Your youth will gain valuable leadership skills, youth sponsorship training, and become a key member of the community. We look forward to meeting you!
