Youth advisory council

Young people help shape our work by sharing experiences, ideas, and perspectives that reflect the realities young people are navigating today.

Youth advisory council

Guided by the voices of young people

Our youth advisory council brings together young people from across Ontario who share perspectives, experiences, and ideas that help inform our priorities, initiatives, and system improvement efforts.

The council reflects our commitment to meaningful youth engagement and helps ensure our work remains relevant, practical, and responsive to the evolving needs of young people.

Two youth advisory members engaging

Young people bring a different lens. They are living this stuff right now. They see what is working or not working in real time. They understand the pressure, the stress, and the gaps.

— Christina Robert, Youth advisory alum
