Dear Friends,
Youth Programs Coordinating Committee (YPCC) is happy to report that Rebekah Percy has been hired as the Interim Youth Programs Coordinator. She will begin work on March 23rd. Rebekah is a member of La Jolla meeting and attender at Orange Grove. She has attended PacYM since childhood and has served the yearly meeting in a variety of ways, most recently as co-clerk of YPCC for two years. Her experience with the YPCC as well as her strong organizational and communication skills will serve the youth programs of the yearly meeting well. Rebekah resigned from the YPCC on January 6 to address work-life balance issues and was not involved in the decision to release Javaughn. Rebekah can be reached at the YPC email address: pym.youthcoordinator@gmail.com starting March 23rd.
The Interim YPC position is intended to serve us through Annual Session and will end on August 31. YPCC has created an Ad Hoc committee to address issues surrounding the YPC role and are requesting participation from youth, Racial Justice subcommittee, and Ministry and Oversight in this review process. We hope this work will be completed by fall and a new YPC recruitment process will begin at that time.
Stay well,
Melissa Lovett-Adair, Clerk
Youth Programs Coordinating Committee
