youth development, meetings, St Patrick's Day

National Youth Development Information Center
The National Youth Development Information Center (NYDIC) was created with generous support from the John T. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, the Lilly Endowment, and a number of other charitable organizations. The site is designed to function as a place for youth workers to look through information on funding, programming, research, policy, and job training opportunities. These materials are divided into sections that include “Funding”, “Programming”, and “Policy & Advocacy”.

Meetings Do Not Have To Last Forever and Accomplish Nothing
Does it feel like you spend all your volunteer time, or time at the office in meetings? You know, the endless meetings, the ones that frustrate everyone and accomplish little. This is a common complaint among workers and volunteers, of all types and levels. Does it have to be this way? I do not believe so. Here are some guidelines for conducting a productive and as short as is practical meeting.

What is St Patricks Day? What is Saint Patrick’s Day?
(Irish: Lá ’le Pádraig or Lá Fhéile Pádraig),
colloquially St. Paddy’s Day or Paddy’s Day,
is an annual feast day which celebrates Saint Patrick
