In partnership with the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges, this webinar will provide an increased understanding of YABs and explore the effectiveness of engaging youth impacted by opioids and other SUDs in an advisory capacity.  It will focus on targeted approaches for the establishment of a YAB, including key considerations when recruiting appropriate youth as well as the expertise of support staff and local community organizations in ensuring that these relationships are leveraged in order to effectively highlight issues of importance, enhance recovery support systems, and inform juvenile justice reform through the lens of youth with lived experiences.
