Our first 6 months
The Youth Advisory Board is a club dedicated to focusing on and raising awareness about the dangers of addiction while also emphasizing the importance of mental health. Through discussions and education, this club works to inform others and promote healthier choices within communities.
Over the past 6 or so months, the Youth Advisory Board has been quite busy. We branched out into two additional programs, The Active Minds Program, where we discuss mental health and topics related to it, and the Air Quality Monitoring Program, where we are measuring air quality and putting together awareness posters and zines to spread the word about how dangerous vaping is not only to the body, but to your surroundings and the people around you.
On top of these programs, we've hosted multiple events, such as a youth advisory board mixer and outreach events. Additionally, we've begun work on a unique new campaign to spread awareness to youth. As we continue to work on our projects and develop, we will have more events and interesting experiences to share with each other and everybody reading these posts.
As people beyond the club, we will all continue to overcome our issues while helping each other. Make sure to follow us on Instagram for more updates and information about our projects.
