Be the voice, face, and force behind JYN’s teen movement.
From its inception, JYN has valued the honest investment of its teen ambassadors—students who serve as the voice of interest and inspiration behind everything we do.

- Use word-of-mouth and social media to engage peers
- Lead short lunch or after-school info sessions for prospective students
- Attend monthly meetings with JYN staff to plan outreach, discuss events, and follow up with new recruits
- Plan ambassador-led, large-scale events to support JYN’s mission
- Must be a current and past participant in JYN programs
Benefits:
- Develop leadership, communication, and teamwork skills
- Earn community service hours
- Receive reference letters for resumes, college, or university applications
- Enjoy exclusive perks like ambassador merch, gifts, and recognition

JYN Amabassador Application
This is not just a program for building a resume or collecting hours — it’s for teens who love JYN and want to be part of its impact and future. Applicants must complete a short form and include a brief essay explaining why they’re the right person to represent JYN in their school, camp, and community. Applications are reviewed by our presidents, with follow-up communication provided after review.
