Youth Action Boards (YABs) create opportunities for young people to participate in the shaping of programs and policies in their local communities. This guide highlights promising practices for developing an effective YAB structure and governance. The structure included here reflects what successful boards often do, but it is important to recognize that every community has access to different resources and capacities - and so a YAB will look a little different everywhere.
