Helping youth successfully make the transition from one installation to another is the role of the Youth Sponsorship Program.

Our program reaches out by working closely with Balfour Beatty Communities and Operation:Military Kids for distribution of Youth Program events and the School Liaison Officer who assists with our public school connection.
