Our second-ever virtual youth leadership Summit was a success! Young advocates from across the state came together to present their recommendations to the Office of Homeless Youth and the Supreme Court Commissions on Children in Foster Care. Topics raised by Mockingbird’s young people included Safe and Affirming Placements for LGBTQ+ Youth, Expunging Criminal Records and Increasing Access to Financial Literacy Skills. We’ll be sure to keep you updated on the progress of these important issues. If you weren’t able to join us, you can watch the full video below! Chapter presentations begin at 15:56.
