Youth Outreach, Mentorship and Service

“The Bahá’í youth, on whom Louhelen Ranch has exercised a particular and indeed irresistable appeal, and whose sessions they have so frequently and in such numbers attended, have a peculiar responsibility to shoulder in connection with its development into that ideal Bahá’í University of the future . . .”

— From a letter dated July 29, 1939, written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to the Bahá’í Youth
Session at Louhelen.

Bahá’í Youth Service Corps and the Five Year Plan

Youth ages 18 – 25 are invited to apply for the Year of Service program at Louhelen. Recently, The American Baha'i magazine included an article TAB about Louhelen's service youth.

During this year of service, youth are immersed in the Institute process, and consecrate themselves to the spirit of the Faith, becoming invincible champions of justice for a united world.

The Year of Service program integrates intensive service to people of all ages and backgrounds who come to Louhelen, direct service to the children, youth, and adults in the local community, learning through on-going spiritual development, and participating in residential Bahá’í community life.

Youth serve in hospitality and guest service, food service, maintenance, bookstore, and other areas. In recent years Youth Service Corps members have come from many states and countries.
