Indiana National Guard Youth Program The Indiana National Guard Family Program realizes that military youth face a unique set of challenges. Through the Youth Program we are able to help provide the support and resources needed to help children through all stages of the deployment cycle.
The Youth Program serve youth ages 6-18 (18 and in school) and provides opportunity for youth to develop their physical, social, emotional and cognitive abilities.
