Services & Classes - Youth Programs
The Youth Programs of The United Palace Cathedral
are presented for the benefit of the local community, the
city, the state, and the nation. These various programs are
to be brought to perfection to serve as local models that
can be replicated anywhere.
The boundless energy of our youth, when undirected or misdirected,
can turn towards mischief, drugs and crime — as is too
much the case these days. The Community Youth Programs of
The United Palace Cathedral have been established to direct and redirect
that energy into interesting, constructive, and positive activities.
These programs will help foster a positive growing experience
for our youth by exposing them to activities and opportunities
that may not be ordinarily accessible in their communities.
The United Palace Cathedral — and everyone involved with this
Ministry — would like to invite you to participate in
any of these programs, to help and encourage our youth, who
face tremendous challenges in today’s world.
The Intercultural Youth Society
For the Performing Arts ~ Informal
The I.Y.S. involves youth in music, dance, and drama. It includes
the Intercultural Youth Choir of New York. It is formed to
train youth of various cultures and creeds in the disciplines
of the performing arts, exposing them to music and songs of
various cultures. The training is planned to include meeting
and working with various celebrities and professionals in
the theatre and entertainment fields. They are to perform
regularly throughout the community and the city — and
to travel as they, and the opportunity, develop.
Tutoring for Students (Elementary through
College)
This will prevent many education "drop-outs.”
In many homes, students do not have anyone capable of helping
them with their schoolwork. We call upon other advanced students,
collegians, college graduates, and professionals to give service
in tutoring and mentoring. It is intended that each young person
that participates in these activities will be interviewed and
counseled on an on-going basis to ascertain his/her total well-being,
including social and educational progress.
Youth Mentors for Boys and Girls
The aim is to bring the youth together with
stable and caring adults, in a nurturing one-on-one relationship.
Adults will act as role models and encouragers. Our motto: “Every
female, a lady; Every male, a gentleman.” To this end we
will teach by example. Youth will also be taught that each person
is to become a self-supporting, contributing member of society.
Young Professionals Society
This program allows our professionals the
opportunity to learn how to strengthen their credibility, clout,
and careers through study and networking, while giving back
to the community through voluntary service and fellowship with
the youth.
Collegians Society ~ Informal
Promoting, encouraging and fostering relationships
between our collegians and high school students is vital. Our
college students and graduates make great tutors and mentors
for our youth when they share their experiences, in preparation
for others to follow.
"A Greater Chance" Program ~ Informal
"A Greater Chance" is organized
to give youth positive channels for directing their boundless
energy, through the creative and performing arts, as well as
by tutoring and mentoring. Hopefully, as youth are given “A
Greater Chance,” they will not fall into the criminal justice
system and need “Another Chance.”
"A Golden Opportunity"
This program is organized to prepare and
make minority youth aware of the many Golden Opportunities yet
available, such as scholarships to various schools, colleges,
and camps; internships, fellowships, jobs and other opportunities
that are available to them.
Let us know how YOU wish
to serve, or be served by any of these programs. Is there
a young person you know who would benefit from these activities?
Refer him/her to us!
