LEARNINGS

Our youth members played critical roles in driving this project, from setting the focus of our research project, to facilitating the focus groups with peers, to lifting up key findings from our data.

Our youth members were able to bring in their personal experiences and insights as people directly impacted by this issue of youth holistic wellness. Our project demonstrates the power and potential of change driven by youth and for youth.

This project has built our youth researchers’ belief in their ability to lead and create change as young people. We hope this project demonstrates the importance of centering young people in CYBHI and other initiatives or programs that aim to address youth needs
