Child Family Health International is a member of the International Coordinating Committee for Global Youth Service Day which takes place on April 25-27, 2008. Global Youth Service Day is an annual global event organized by Youth Service America and the Global Youth Action Network, together with numerous International Organizations and National Coordinating Committees that Celebrates, Recognizes, and Mobilizes:
- the year-round contributions of young people to build their communities and their world through voluntary service, and
- the contributions made by the community (public, private, and nonprofit sectors) for empowering young people, especially through mentoring.
CFHI was invited to be part of the International Coordinating Committee as recognition of the service-learning role taken by students participating in CFHIs global health education programs.
