Our Youth-Adult Partnership Model

Advocates’ youth-adult partnership framework empowers young people and adults to work in full partnership envisioning, developing, implementing, and evaluating programs and/or policies that impact young people.

For Educators and Other Youth Serving Professionals

For decades, Advocates for Youth has worked to ensure that in classrooms, healthcare facilities and community based agencies across the country, all youth are safe, welcomed, and celebrated for who they are – and that they find representation in policies, programs, and program materials. Visit our menu of capacity-building professional development opportunities and resources to support youth-serving adults.

Policy and Advocacy

In partnership with young people, Advocates for Youth champions policies that expand and improve young people’s reproductive and sexual health and rights on Capitol Hill, within the Administration and federal agencies, within state legislatures and local municipalities, in coalitions, and with colleague organizations.

AMAZE.org

AMAZE is a collection of fun, animated videos that provide young people medically accurate, age-appropriate, affirming answers to their questions about puberty, sex, their bodies, and healthy relationships. Parents, educators, health care professionals, and community leaders also use AMAZE videos to communicate effectively and honestly about sex and sexuality with the young people in their lives.
