youth advocates
Youth advocates are individuals or organizations dedicated to representing and supporting the interests of young people. They work to ensure that youth voices are heard in decision-making processes, policies, and programs that affect their lives. By raising awareness, offering guidance, and collaborating with communities and institutions, youth advocates aim to create opportunities for adolescents to thrive, access resources, and have their concerns addressed. Their goal is to empower young people to become active, engaged members of society and to foster environments that promote their well-being and development.
