Volunteer, Opportunity, Inspire, Connect, Empower
Youth VOICE Council (YVC) was formed in 2023 to create a space for connection, collaboration, and action for youth volunteers who are in high school. YVC fosters learning and leadership in prevention, overdose response, stigma reduction, recovery, and allyship. Throughout the year, members take part in educational workshops and engage in initiatives and programming of their choice at the school, community, and national levels. They are empowered to use their voices and passions to create positive change and shared solutions.
Are you a high school student looking to get involved? Upon completing our online registration form, a SAFE Project staff representative will contact you for a brief orientation and share details about the next monthly meeting.
SAFE Project’s Youth VOICE Council meets on the last Wednesday of each month virtually at 7:00 pm ET.

Wednesday, February 25th at 7:00 pm ET
Zoom information is sent directly to registered council members.
