engaging young parents: a toolkit for youth-serving organizations and agencies

engaging young parents: a toolkit for youth-serving organizations and agencies is designed to help youth-serving institutions authentically engage young parents as partners and leaders in their organization’s efforts to serve young families. the toolkit provides best practices, tips and resources to create a young parent leadership council (yplc) comprised of eight to ten young parent-leaders who can offer insights into the barriers and opportunities young parents face, partner with adult staff to advocate for improvements to programs, policies and systems to better meet the needs of young parents, their families and communities, and help build pathways of economic opportunity for yplc members and other young parents in your community.
