a Youth Sponsor
|
Note to Parents:
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 very
real concern. Here
are a few examples:
- How will I make new
friends?
- What will my new
school be like?
- What actives/sports
are available?
- Will I fit in?
- What are the other
kids wearing?
A Youth Sponsor will help provide the answer to these and many
other questions. A
Youth Sponsor’s job is to help
decrease the new student’s anxiety. The
most important part of being a Youth
Sponsor is to be a friend
and make the new student feel
welcome at Fort Huachuca. A
Youth Sponsor will be able to introduce
the newcomer to other students at school
and at the Youth Center.

items from the Wish List Form (for one or
multiple schools) that fit the Unit’s mission
time requirements.

school’s Wish Lists for volunteer activities.

from their Commanders prior to using duty time.)
