Kentucky Child Now is committed to modeling youth involvement within our own organization and creating opportunities for young people to be involved in meaningful roles within their school, community and youth-services.
The Youth Advisory Council (YAC) is made up of youth, ages 13-24, from all across the state. The YAC members work with the Board of Directors on decisions and policies that impact Kentucky's youth; they provide leadership for the annual Great Kids Summit; they participate in state and local community service projects; and they promote youth involvement in their school and community. Members are recruited every August through an application process.
