2. Program Update: The Mvskoke Nation Youth Services (MNYS) program was created in October 2014. It is a result of the 2014 Strategic Planning session in which the following goal was developed: Engage Muscogee Youth in organized activities that will contribute to the community and tribal community; and help them enhance their interest, skills, and abilities into their adulthood. Currently an Advisory Committee has been developed and has begun meeting to aid in the development of this program and to ensure that youth are engaged and have a voice. MNYS will also be working to develop new programs and services and to connect youth with existing resources. Program Goals: Empower Mvskoke Youth Sustain the Mvskoke Way of Life Connect Youth to Existing Resources Promote Existing Health Programs Identify Gaps in Services Build Civic Awareness Recruit & Train Youth Advocates Encourage Positive Relationships Program Values: Youth Voice-the ideas, opinions, involvement, and initiative of people considered to be “young”.
