Building will take place in the classroom, on the learning field, and through retreats, conferences, and experiential learning opportunities. 

Form

Formation will occur through spiritual, emotional, and mental development, along with mentorship, to develop the whole person.​

Serve

Serving opportunities will help develop students' skills in service to their communities, create a space for leadership development, and allow creativity to flourish.​

IMPACT YOUNG ADULTS

GATHERINGS

​MENTORSHIP

OUTREACH

Students connect monthly with a small group of peers and leaders to build community, connection, encouragement, growth, and fun. You learn to be a trusted friend, a faithful follower, and a peer-to-peer leader through being part of an IMPACT YOUNG ADULTS.

Throughout the year, we will host fun, life-impacting hangouts that infuse the heart and core of The Pack Youth Inc through the mission of family, experiencing joy, and deep connection with others. This could involve hosting beach days, game nights, movie nights, bowling, day trips, attending holiday and end-of-year celebrations, and building relationships with volunteers who serve in The Pack Youth programs. We desire for Generation Gap Year students not only to grow as leaders but also to create a HEALTHY COMMUNITY.

Through MENTORSHIP in the BUILD College & Career Internship, students gain personalized guidance that helps them discover their strengths and clarify their purpose. Mentors provide wisdom, accountability, and encouragement as students navigate both personal growth and practical challenges. This supportive relationship empowers students to build confidence, develop leadership skills, and make meaningful life decisions.

OUTREACH OPPORTUNITIES is a hands-on way to apply the lessons learned in the classroom. Generation Gap Year students transition from taking notes on a page to engaging in real-world experiences that demonstrate how their knowledge can positively impact their community.
