Members of the Youth Advisory Council (YAC) include current clients, siblings and grads from 12 to 25-years-old. This motivated group of youth work to host inclusive events for Grandview Kids families, and also take the lead on events, such as our very popular Annual Accessible Halloween event at the Safety Village.
YAC offers members an opportunity to provide feedback to the organization on topics that affect our clients, while earning valuable volunteer hours. The YAC also supports the Grandview Kids Foundation by volunteering at fundraising events, including Celebrity Server Nights.
Our 2021/22 focus is to work on building skills and tools to support youth in finding meaningful employment.
