How do we Program?
Planning the program is a partnership between youth and adults with a goal of developing a program that includes
- ideas from the whole Unit
- supporting the personal progression of all unit members
- created and monitored by the Unit Council
- being supported along by the adults along the way
The basic process across each section for Programming is below.
A range of resources exist to help support Program Planning – click the relevant section box below to find out more!
