Why I Network with Youth Workers in My Community


Doug Franklin - October 6, 2010

Why network with youth workers in your community?

Last weekend at the National Youth Workers Convention hosted by Youth Specialties, we heard from hundreds of youth workers. We asked them if they work together with other youth workers in their community. Many already do, but some are still trying to do it alone. Time and time again, we heard youth leaders share how important their local network was to them.

Here's Doug Franklin, a Network member for six years, who founded LeaderTreks to help equip and unite youth workers. In this video he shares why it is so important for us to network together to reach teenagers.
