Recognizing the importance of inclusion of youth perspectives in important conversations about mental health and suicide prevention that are taking place in Los Angeles County, the LASPN YAB was asked to be part of a Roundtable Series with political leaders. The Roundtable Series launched last spring with a conversation between CA State Senator Anthony Portantino and five youth. Find the recording here: https://vimeo.com/820993536/adeff277d9?share=copy
The LASPN Youth Advisory Board (LASPN YAB) is an inclusive group of youth who are advocating for improving mental health and well-being and its related social determinants of health for youth countywide. The LASPN YAB is guided by four core values that guide our work to achieve our mission: trust, integrity, leadership and inclusion. Meet our Youth Advisory Board members here.
