Building Meaningful Youth Councils Workshop

February 23, 2023 Workshop

Youth Advisory Councils (YAC) are a youth engagement strategy used by programs and organizations to positively incorporate youth voices and to help build the capacity of youth participants. In this session, we will explore what makes a YAC successful and how to ensure meaningful engagement for youth. Hear from Tyler Massias from Earth Guardians, Diane Lill from Conservation Nation, and Kerstin Johansson and Ashleigh Cibelli-Pettus from the City of Austin on their experience with building relevant, authentic and responsive YACs.

This event is part of Children & Nature’s Inside-Out Leadership Series which serves to educate, connect, and inspire people at every stage of their career. Visit our events page to learn about other upcoming events!
