youth services provider

It seems to me that "entidad" doesn't need to be translated at all: "the association is an entity/body" is more or less of a tautology. The very common and standard expression "youth services provider" would be quite sufficient, I think.

agency/body/entity providing youth services

As you haven't provided any real context at all, I am unable to decide which term would work best for "entidad".

Yes, I think "entity" would be the correct term considering it's an association. Cheers.
Note from asker:
Sorry, it's s fixed term... I can provide the context, "La asociación ***** es una entidad prestadora de servicios a la juventud que tiene como fin general el logro de una sociedad integradora, abierta y cuyo fundamento sea la persona y su libertad efectiva, desde la diversidad, la igualdad y la participación cívica, empezando con los jóvenes. ", though I don't know if it will be of any help.... :P
actually, I'm talking about an association, not a public body or anything similar, so I suppose the most appropriate term would be "entity", wouldn't it...?
