The major purpose of the advisory council is to provide the center coordinator with input, guidance and recommendations with regard to the planning, development, implementation and coordination of center services, programs and activities. An effective advisory council is one that is proactive rather than reactive in the discussion of matters pertinent to the center. The Cabinet for Health and Family Services’ contract with local school districts states the advisory councils shall maintain oversight of the center operations through an ongoing review of:
Budget Amendments
Needs assessments
Budget review at least every other month
Action Plan updates and amendments
Evaluation of activities for achievement of outcomes and program effectiveness
Review of Implementation report
Advisory council membership is comprised of parents, school and community representatives. Youth Services Centers or combination centers must have at least two student representatives. The representation on the advisory council signifies the collaboration and linkage between school, home and community that is at the core of a successful FRYSC.
