The Youth Advocacy Network is a branch of the HAEA’s Grassroots Advocacy Network that offers specialized youth-focused training and advocacy opportunities for teens and young adults.
Each year, HAEA Youth Advocacy Network members will be invited to join two virtual youth advocacy training workshops, and one in-person advocacy training event. Youth Advocates will also be invited to join our annual Capitol Hill event.
