Launching & Expanding Youth Self-Advocacy
In Maine, young people can join a cool project! It's called Youth Self-Advocacy, and it's all about speaking up for yourself and making your own choices. You can meet other young people, share ideas, and speak up together. You can help make things better by fighting against unfairness and making changes. Come join us! We want to work with you!
Dan Kipp is the Project Director. To learn more about this project or to get involved, contact Dan by email or by phone at 207.626.2774 ext 102.
