Privacy
When you send our general contact form, we store your name, email address, selected role and topic, message, and submission time so we can reply. You can also email connect@youthaliveny.org directly. We don't create accounts, and we don't publish names, prayer requests, or details about students.
The movement support form is open. Students 13 and older may submit using their first name, email, school context, and requested support, and must name a supporting parent, guardian, or youth leader with that adult's email—we do not ask for date of birth. Under 13, a parent or guardian should submit using their own details. Age is self-declared; naming a youth leader is not verified parental consent. Inquiries store the submitter's first name, email, role, school name and town, situation, optional group and church details, requested support, a note, and submission time. Inquiries remain private and unverified, not a directory or verified movement. No automatic student introductions occur. Please don't include other students' personal details. Follow-up with students includes their supporting adult; we do not contact students privately one-to-one.
Students: please connect with your youth pastor or a parent before reaching out.
School guidelines
Student-initiated religious activities in public schools are student-led and must respect applicable law, school policies, and the rights of other students. Separately authorized school or community activities may involve adults. Youth Alive New York does not claim access to schools.
