Even though Young Life is especially for kids, parents and other adults in the community are important to Young Life. Adults can support Young Life in a variety of ways — by becoming a volunteer leader or committee member, by attending a Young Life fund-raising event, by hosting Young Life or by simply telling others in the community about Young Life and its commitment to kids.

An important part of our committment to kids is their safety. Our staff and volunteer leaders know they are responsible for modeling lives of hope and integrity.Young Life's Human Resources department has developed missionwide policies and procedures to ensure that kids are protected when they are with Young Life staff and/or leaders as well as when kids are part of Young Life'sponsored activities.

All of our leaders have participated in a 6-month training period and are committed to specific standards of conduct.  A background check as well as a drivers assessment has been conducted on each leader to help insure the safety of you child.  Our commitment is to constantly put qualified and trustworthy leaders on board to work with kids here in east Alabama.
