We want this to be a comfortable experience; names and faces can be removed for the purpose of confidentiality, upon request. It’s important to note that your brutal honesty is critical for the YAC to understand how we can adequately assist you as well as other youth and children. Questions or topics that are optional to be addressed are the following. Barriers and gaps you endured while being involved with the system. Hardships. This is how I felt… the good, the bad, and the ugly. What would you want to change now or what would you have changed? Your experiences before care, during care, or after. Your message to workers- What would you like workers to consider? What can workers do to help you or other youth? Your success now and your struggles. Anything else that you want to speak about.

As a part of the YAC we hope to become a voice for those who often don't get to speak on issues that affect them, open the doors of opportunity for children, youth, and adults in and out of care, and alter the system for the generations that will come after us. Moreover, we want to put action to our words and stand up for a group of people that need serious, motivated, and strong-minded leaders to speak with and for us. HOW WE CAN HELP
