“Local and international service program for utah's youth. Students become relied upon volunteers in their own communities, attend monthly planning meetings where they are mentored to take leadership roles at the international service site, and spend two weeks of their summer vacation serving in small impoverished villages in a number of developing countries. In return for these commitments, youthlinc students earn a sponsorship that pays a portion of their international service trip costs. In 2019, the service year included 429 participants, including a satellite teams southern utah. In 2019 youthlinc also partnered with district 5420 rotary to run a rotary-themed service year trip to fiji.”

“Young humanitarian award program. The program recognizes utah residents who are high school or undergraduate college students who excel in their efforts to give back to their communities. The overall winner of the award receives a monetary award to be used for tuition for either undergraduate or graduate studies at the college or university of the student's choice. We are indebted to the george s. And dolores dor eccles foundation, robert d. Kent jr. Trust, and shaun and annette michel for making this award possible. This year we increased the amount of scholarship money from 13,500 to 22,000 and any students attending the university of utah had their scholarship from youthlinc matched with funds from the a ray olpin student union. Additionally, we divided the award into two tracks: high school and college. A winner for each track was awarded 5,000, a runner up from each track was awarded 3,000, and the remaining six finalists each received 1,000 each.”

“Local service directory: the youthlinc utah online local service directory provides a selective list of organizations and agencies that offer hands-on volunteer opportunities to youth in a positive mentoring atmosphere. These sites have been recommended by youthlinc service year participants. Anyone in the state can use this directory to search for sites by type of service and areas of utah, log and verify volunteer service. The local service directory has expanded its scope and abilities. The directory is now able to be used by organizations/schools outside of youthlinc to log and track hours. New in 2019, youthlinc became a certifying organization for the president's volunteer service award and all service year and community partner students that fulfilled the 100 hour minimal service requirement were given this prestigious award. Global community leadership: this program is similar to the service year, but is at a "collegiate" level. They engage in coursework approved by utah state university to ask students to critically evaluate their local and international humanitarian work. It also exposes students to strategies to become more involved in advocacy to affect systematic change. This past summer one team went to cambodia along with a completing a course with usu about genocide studies; and a team went to vietnam and completed a course with usu about communications, and a team went to kenya along with an online course to study global health. Any tuition students pay to usu for their transcript credit is then passed on to youthlinc to help cover trip costs, making the credit a possibility at no additional cost.”
