The DYA program challenges County adolescents to begin or continue their journeys of personal growth through various initiatives that provide opportunities for them to become more civically-minded. Established by Legislative Resolution in 2017, the unique program is designed to engage youth in learning and experiencing involvement in volunteer service, personal development, exploration and physical fitness. Students commit to completing requirements in two, three or all four categories for Bronze, Silver or Gold recognition. Each category can require up to 100 or more hours of activity that must be logged and certified. The program is open to all Suffolk County youths between the ages of 13 and 18.

LOCAL STUDENTS EARN DISTINGUISHED

Students from the 17th Legislative District who earned awards were: Gloria Min (Gold) and Jaidyn Schabe (Gold) from Deer Park High School, Morenike Olukoya (Gold) from North Babylon High School and Owen Bonvicin (Bronze),

Thomas Galvin (Bronze) and Ryan Perillo (Gold) from Walt Whitman High School in the South Huntington School District.

“I commend all six of these remarkable students for their commitment and passion by embarking on this journey and sticking with it to completion. They should be very proud of themselves and it is an honor to recognize them,” said Legislator Donnelly.
