INTRODUCTION TO THE PNBC YOUTH DEPARTMENT:

All youth are welcome to participate in the PNBC Youth Department Activities.

PNBC youth programs are designed to involve youth between the ages of 5 and 18. Activities included are oriented towards youth development through recreation, social life, prevention, intervention, or education. Participants are involved in sports, religion, community service, youth activism, youth service, or outdoor education. During the youth educational sessions, topics are discussed, which include youth empowerment, consumer rights, youth-led media, youth rights, and missions.
