Youth VOICE Council
SAFE Project’s Youth VOICE (Volunteer, Opportunity, Inspire, Connect, Empower) Council was formed in 2023, providing an opportunity for high school students to work in their communities to overcome the stigma of mental health and substance use disorders.
Are you a high school student looking to get involved? The council meets regularly to discuss new initiatives.
SAFE Project’s Youth VOICE Council generally meets twice a month.
