Youth inclusion and hearing from those with lived experience is an important part of providing services and designing programs for youth. Even though there are examples out there, we still struggle, fumble and often end up retraumatizing or tokenizing youth and young adults. This session will teach participants what to look for, how to be better about inclusion and tips and tools for including youth and young adults in program design, system change and policy work.

Learning Objectives:
-List the difference between tokenizing and including
-Develop strategies for including and reaching out to youth with lived experience
-Identify tools and partners for supporting their work with youth with lived experience
