Capturing Promising Practices in Recruitment and
Retention of Frontline Youth Workers: A Project of the National Collaboration
for Youth In this paper the National Collaboration for Youth (NYC) reports on
the findings of its investigation into best practices in the
recruitment and retention of youth workers. Based on surveys,
interviews, and a symposium with representatives of NYC member
organizations and on the input of an advisory group of experts, the
report describes a variety of practical and effective strategies
currently in use by a number of local organizations that serve
youth. While this is not a comprehensive listing, it provides useful
recommendations for any local organization attempting to respond to
the challenges of
effectively recruiting and retaining qualified and competent youth
workers.
