[MR] Position Annoucement: Kingdom Chancellor of Family and Youth Programs

[Emeludt Hänsler/Emmie Smith (Atlantia)]

Greetings,


The last four years have been a great deal of fun for me as the Windmasters
Hill Youth Officer and three years as the Kingdom Youth Officer.  But there
comes a time when you must step-down and offer the opportunity to serve to
others.  With that in mind there have been several changes within the youth
officer positions.



Pending her background check approval, THL Aine O Grienan is the new
Vice-Chancellor of the Pages Academy.  Additionally, this weekend, THL
Margaret Wolseley stepped up to be the Windmasters Hill Youth Officer,
pending her background check approval.



I will always be here for the youth of our Kingdom and will remain a Youth
Officer at-large for as long as the kingdom wishes to have me, but the time
has come for me to seek an individual to step up into the Chancellor of
Family and Youth Programs position.  I hope to find a person that can
continue to help our youth program grow to support the families within our
Society.



Here is a general description of the youth program and of the
duties/responsibilities of the Chancellor of Family and Youth Programs:

1.      The purpose of the Family and Youth Programs is to facilitate the
education of youth about the SCA and history within the SCA period; support
and encourage the participation of youth in age-appropriate activities;
provide activities for all youth and to help parents encourage their
children and teens to become an active and vital part of the SCA; and
assist Seneschals, Chatelaines, Autocrats, Youth Officers, and Coordinators
in providing and/or organizing classes, educational activities, and
opportunities for all youth to become more involved within the SCA.



2.      The duties and responsibilities of the Chancellor of Family and
Youth Programs are to act as the Kingdom liaison for and oversee non-combat
related youth programs and related websites; and to establish and develop
policies/guidelines for non-combat related youth programs within Atlantia; To
keep all Youth Officers and the Seneschallate notified of relevant changes
to the office, to provide resources, and facilitate communication between
offices.  (For groups without a Local Youth Officer, the office of the
Seneschal shall be responsible for the duties of the local youth office.); To
report, as required, to the Special Deputy for Family and Youth Programs
and to the Kingdom Seneschal; To ensure the coordination of Youth
Activities at Kingdom-level events, Atlantian-sponsored activities at
inter-kingdom wars, universities, and collegia; To maintain and publish a
current roster of all Regional Vice-Chancellors of Youth, Local Youth
Officers, and Youth Officers-at-large, in Atlantia.
