The approach to National Service will be:
1. YOUTH-CENTERED
To empower young people to take part in the decision-making process; to improve the confidence and capacity of young people and adults to contribute to the process and to partner with Youth Groups and Youth activists for support.
2. SKILLS-BASED
To seek the positive attributes of young people and employ them in the development of National Service.
3. INTER-AGENCY
To assist in developing and implementing national policies and programmes.
4. STAKEHOLDER RELATED
To engage the relevant stakeholders to achieve our Objectives
5. ALL EMBRACING
To engage, as wide as possible, institutions and communities, along with the expanded youth population (10-35 years) across Trinidad and Tobago.
