NA-YGN Local Chapter Resources
NA-YGN is committed to helping local chapters survive and thrive, but we do not dictate how each local chapter should be run. The resources on this website have been developed by local chapters and are posted here for the benefit of any other local chapter who may be able to benefit from their use. Please see the Local Chapter Documents folder for documents that were created to help both new and established local chapters. If you are looking for specific guidance or information that is not available here, please contact your country's affairs chair and we would be happy to help you get what you need by navigating here
A list of existing local chapters and local chapter leaders, sorted by region, is located here

Resources for Local Chapter Leads
Local chapter leads are not only the leaders of their chapters; they are also the points of contact between their chapters and the continental NA-YGN organization. NA-YGN communicates with its local chapter leads through the Affairs Chairs and the Regional Leads, and uses the following tools:
Local Chapter Leads email distribution list. The affairs chairs maintain an email distribution list of all NA-YGN local chapter leads. If you are a local chapter lead and you have not been added to this list, please contact us here
Bi-monthly local chapter lead teleconferences. The affairs chairs host bi-monthly teleconferences for all local chapter leaders. The purpose of these teleconferences is to support NA-YGN local chapters -by keeping you connected to the core, regional leads, and each other. These teleconferences provide updates on what is happening with other local chapters and issues that the core wants to communicate. These teleconferences also provide tips, training, or a sharing of best practices for you to help your local chapter. Additionally, this is a forum for local chapter leads to ask candid questions of the core or of each other. If you are a local chapter lead and have not received an invitation to this teleconference, please contact us here
Local Chapter Lead Briefs. The affairs chairs send out local chapter lead briefs to communicate issues that the NA-YGN core and committees want to make local chapter leads aware of. These briefs are also posted on this website.
End of Year Metrics. The NA-YGN core requests that all local chapters keep track of the activities that their chapters are participating in throughout the year. Refer to the end of year metrics folder for specific information on these metrics and why they are important.
Regional Teleconferences and Communications. Each regional lead holds regular teleconferences with his/her region, and may also use email to communicate activities and events between chapters in the region. Refer to the NA-YGN Regions folder for more information on NA-YGN regions, and to find out what region your chapter is in.
