Service Delivery

Our Team

YPHS is building a multidisciplinary team around one goal: helping young people move from potential to meaningful opportunity. Our service-delivery structure is designed around the YPHS pathway—supporting young people to discover direction, develop capabilities, build connections, take meaningful action and continue progressing.

As YPHS grows, some roles within our service-delivery structure are still being developed and will be assigned as organizational capacity and funding expand.

One Youth. One Pathway. A Coordinated Team.
