Beginning in 1975, the NYEP started a wide-ranging educational program in order to make youth organizations more "relevant" to adolescents. With financial support and program collaboration from the Eli Lilly Endowment, NYEP gained the participation of eight national "girl-serving" organizations: American National Red Cross, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, Camp Fire Girls, 4-H, Girls Clubs of America, Girl Scouts, YWCA, and the United Neighborhood Centers of America. The National Youthworker Education Project records consist of administrative records, such as correspondence and project summaries; subject and reference files; and file of evaluations, correspondence, and questionnaires from project participants.
