The YLTP aims at training youngsters in a number of areas like health,hygiene,educaiton,solid waste management , housekeeping etc"

The pillars of the 5H Program are the youth leaders - physically strong, mentally alert, morally responsible individuals. They are role models committed to channeling their energy and talents into mobilizing and strengthening people to work towards fulfilling their own community’s needs. These youth leaders drive projects such as the building of homes for the homeless, health awareness and disease prevention camps and setting up of basic healthcare facilities in rural areas.

The program also offers scope for long term employment to unemployed youngsters and gives them a chance to interact with people and gain confidence in themselves. Youth are not generally committed to wrongdoing and can be trained to attain a good set of human values. By training others, such youth also undergo a process of self-development making them better individuals.

"In turn the youth are responsible for educating villagers in rural areas with the knowledge they have acquired to help villagers identify problems and come up with solutions to overcome them"

As part of the youth training program, training to implement the 5H projects in the rural areas is imparted:

• Health: Improve and supplement the existing health infrastructure in rural areas.
• Hygiene: Bringing awareness about better cleanliness and hygiene in rural areas.
• Housing: Low cost, locally specific resources to be made available for the housing requirements to provide shelter to poor and underprivileged.
• Harmony in Diversity: Educate and bring about the sense of belongingness amongst all human beings.
• Human Values: To promote basic values such as compassion, mutual trust, friendliness and non-violence.
