applying the components of the Colorado Graduated Driver’s License policy. The work in this area accounts for 5
hours per week.


Community Education Program Support: The Youth Advisor will help inform decision making for the planning of
Community Education events that will best help build skills and provide strategies for youth, parents, caregivers,

(individuals, agencies and other resources) to build collaboration, trust, and understanding/knowledge. Also, the
Youth Advisor will support Community Education events in various identified roles (i.e., welcome guests, serve
food, set up and/or break down, etc.), as schedule allows. The Youth Advisor will serve
