How we Associate

International Association of Youth Courts tries to start new national youth court programs and support existing national youth programs in an effort to build networks, templates, and best practices for national youth court programs.

While recognizing standard achievements and praising advancement of national youth court programs and their Youth Courts.

Through conferences, awards, meetings, events, raising awareness, and raising funds.

National Associations

The resource limitations of Internatioanl Assocation of Youth Courts, indicate we require national association founders & leaders to carry most of the responsibility and expenses of the starting national associations, with limited support from International Association of Youth Courts.

Due to the appreciation of International Association of Youth Courts' causes, but resource limitations we have inspired a number of people to become founders & leaders of a national association or support, but the rigor of their endeavors seemed to be too difficult for a number of the founders & leaders to control. Which is why we have raised awareness for national associations that no longer have leadership or personnel. Moving forward IAYC intentionally deliberate on choices of, leadership, which countries, and the resources allocated to each national association of youth courts we associate with.

Founder

Christian Apollon Service, started building International Association of Youth Courts after participating as a Youth Court, as a Youth advocate. Then realizing during his travels that this life-saving, diversity-affirming, and inclusive Youth Court program was not available in a number of communities or schools even at the University level. After researching other organizations that tried to introduce Youth Court to new communities he realized certain communities were not being prioritized. So, after trying to contact Youth Court organizations he chose to continue the carry the light of the cause and start International Association of Youth Court with the free time he had while integrating the organization into his other activities such as, University student athletics, acting, modeling, caregiving, volunteering, and being a friend, to proliferate Youth Courts around our Solar System.

Open to Associate

This may seem like an individual effort, but International Association of Youth Courts founder believes that we are always supported even if we don’t always perceive our support from, our global communities, our governments, our cities, and our families & friends often the unperceived support we receive makes worlds of difference. International Association of Youth Courts is open to associating with any entity that aligns with our H.E.L.P. attitude or can deliver services that we want, to help us achieve our goals in a manner that supports our pillars of, Free Will, Forgiveness, and Fortitude.
