Description

Youth engagement is central to successful school health policy. Student input grounds policy conversations in the realities of today, and the opportunity to have their thoughts considered provides students with a meaningful venue to improve the world around them.

This event will occur Thursday, October 28, 2021 at 4:00 pm to 5:15 pm ET. The first panel will feature organizations prioritizing youth partnership, and their discussion will focus on strategies and tools for authentic youth engagement and ensuring different youth voices are considered. The second moderated panel will feature a discussion among youth, and the audience will have the opportunity to ask them questions.
