With the emergence of MCHB’s Healthy & Ready to Work Initiative it has became clear that the former model of family-centered care needs drastic revision to allow youth to become full partners on their health care teams, leaders in their care management, and partners in policy making. During this round table, we will discuss the development of youth advisory councils and their value to Title V agencies and the youth they serve. We also will describe resources and technical assistance that can be accessed through the HRTW National Resource Center to support youth advisory councils.
