YFC, Canada is structured as an association of chapter ministries each receiving their “charter” from the National Office of YFC, Canada in Surrey, BC. Each of the 24 chapters has an independent board of directors and has achieved “charitable status” through the offices of CCRA in Ottawa. Each chapter is led by an Executive Director who is recruited and employed by the Chapter Board.

Chapter ministries are commissioned to reach the youth of their area through nationally approved strategies which conform to the international standards and philosophy of YFC International based in Englewood, Colorado

Chapter ministries are encouraged to broaden their ministry influence through the development of satellite ministries in communities within their sphere of influence. There are currently 51 satellites in Canada under chapter leadership.

The National Office of YFC, Canada exists to serve the Chapter ministries through the development of a national vision and strategic plan as well as the provision of common services. The National Director is responsible to a National Board of Directors and gives leadership to the movement through the Executive Directors at the Chapter level.
