Thank you for your interest in the Points of Light Youth Leadership Institute.

Volunteer Fairfax has been offering this unique week-long training that teaches a broad array of leadership skills for several years.
Unfortunately, due to the merging of the Points of Light Institute with Hands On Network, PYLI is currently on hiatus and Volunteer Fairfax will not be offering this program in 2009.

If you are a youth looking to get involved in your community, there are still many ways to do so.

For some great places to start, please look at the below links to local and national resources for youth service and volunteer opportunities:
  • Family Cares - Opportunities for Young Children & Families
  • Directory of Youth Service Opportunities - Searchable by location, mission, and minimum age
  • Great Youth Websites - Links to the Center for Youth as Resources, the Corporation for National and Community Service and Youth Service America
