YOUTH ADVISORY BOARD
The Youth Advisory Board (YAB) is an opportunity for exceptional individuals eager to gain leadership skills, learn about HIV, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), and sexual health, and engage in exciting learning and volunteer opportunities within the DC, Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) community.
The YAB aims to educate and empower young people to make a difference. This year's YAB will offer exciting opportunities for members to access a wealth of educational materials, interact with healthcare providers and professionals at Children's National Hospital (CNH), and channel their energy towards making a positive impact.
