Stake Young Women and Young Men Presidents

Stake Young Women presidents and stake Young Men presidents play a crucial part in ensuring success in an FSY conference. Among other things, they act as a liaison between coordinating council FSY representatives and ward FSY representatives in the stake, encourage young single adults to apply to work as an FSY field staff, and coordinate other logistical needs.

Who Do I Work With?

Coordinating Council FSY Representative

This leader provides instructions from Church headquarters on youth registration, FSY field staff recruitment, and more. Contact them with questions you may have about FSY (see Coordinating Council FSY Representative).

Stake Presidency

Together, use youth unit reports to monitor registration and intervene when necessary to increase registration percentages. Collaborate with them as they support ward and stake youth leadership committees in promoting and enhancing the FSY experience (see Stake Presidency).

Stake FSY Representative

While not required, a stake FSY representative can be invaluable. Counsel with your stake presidency if you wish to call one. Delegate tasks to them, ensuring they work under your direction (see Stake FSY Representative).

Stake Disability Specialist

Though optional, a stake disability specialist can greatly support youth and parents with disabilities. Ensure they collaborate with ward disability specialists or FSY representatives to assist with registration and accommodations for FSY. Work together on travel arrangements and accommodations for stake activities (see Stake Disability Specialist).

Ward FSY Representative

Work closely with these leaders as they oversee youth registration and support YSA field staff recruitment. Address any logistical, registration, or policy questions they have. If no ward disability specialist is appointed, they will assume those responsibilities (see Ward FSY Representative).

Ward Disability Specialist

Optional but valuable, a ward disability specialist supports youth and parents with disabilities. If no stake disability specialist is appointed, ensure ward disability specialists understand their duties. They should assist with registration and accommodations for FSY activities (see Ward Disability Specialist).

Young Single Adult Ward FSY Representative

For stakes with YSA wards, collaborate with these leaders to promote FSY field staff recruitment (see Young Single Adult Ward FSY Representative).

Stake and Ward Youth Leadership

Engage these youth in planning stake FSY activities before and after their session. They can also help with registration, transportation, and other needs. Empower them to take ownership of FSY’s success in your stake (see Stake Youth Committee and Young Men Quorum and Young Women Class Presidencies).
