Supporting Young People’s Healthy Development through Sports
What if every child had the opportunity to play sports? Even though we know the many benefits associated with sports, youth sports participation is on the decline across the country. How do we remove barriers and provide more access to these opportunities for more children, particularly those from low-income communities? How do we make this a health and wellness priority for the nation? This session discussed a national effort working to reimagine sports in America with health and inclusion as core values. In addition to getting a national perspective, they discussed how one local Y is revamping their entire sports program to get more kids engaged and living a healthy lifestyle.

A common problem that exists within the civic engagement framework of most college campuses is that the same individuals accomplish a majority of the service work over time. This workshop is the second session of a three-part training that aims to give strategies and develop service leaders’ ability to recruit volunteers for local non-profit organizations. This second session focuses on analyzing the resources and connections that students have in a web of influence and developing a recruitment plan to fulfill the volunteer needs of the non-profit organization as determined in the previous session.
