Development Strategy
YDS assures that all members have positive experiences that contribute to a positive sense of self-esteem. This is done by developing A Sense of Competence, A Sense of Usefulness, A Sense of Belonging, and A Sense of Influence. When this strategy is fully implemented, the self-esteem of girls and boys is enhanced and an environment is created which helps them achieve their full potential.
