The AR Youth Engagement Specialists Team (the “YES Team”) is a group of current and former foster youth whose mission is to ensure continuous quality legal representation and quality court experiences for youth. The YES Team is passionate about engaging AR foster youth with local and national stakeholders and educational resources and committed to cultivating and maintaining a forum for youth to share their input about programs, policies, and practices that affect them.
The YES Team is composed of selected foster youth who have shown a willingness to advocate on behalf of their fellow foster youth. To learn more visit the Meet the 2013 YES Team tab.
