Executive Director
Chad VanDosen
Chad has been part of Youth For Christ in Southwest Michigan for much of his life—first as a student in middle school, high school, and college, and now as a leader. After graduating from Bethel University in 2018 with a Bachelor’s degree in Education and Ministry, he joined YFC full-time. He later earned a Master’s in Organizational Leadership, equipping him to guide the mission with both vision and care. As Executive Director, Chad remains deeply engaged in ministry while providing strong leadership to the team. We are grateful for his heart, dedication, and direction!
