Current Narrative:

The Division of Vocational Rehabilitation and the Division of Prevention and Behavioral Health Services have partnered to foster the development of a Young Adult Advisory Council. The council targets youth and young adults ages 16-25, who want to make a difference in their communities and who have lived experience with mental health. The Young Adult Advisory Council was developed to provide young adults with a meaningful opportunity to have a voice in decisions made about resources, policies and services that target their needs. Councils are run by and for young adults themselves, with the silent support of staff/organizations. Youth who utilize the APEX program, referenced above, may regain access to financial support for postsecondary education.
