A few of us in the office have been organizing the Cape Ann DSS Youth Advisory Board, which has met already twice this year. This is a group of 16+ foster youth who want to make changes for themselves and future foster teens. They have a couple of things they are working on:
A formal wear drive for proms and other events for males and females
DSS youth to youth mentoring program
If you have a teen in care who would like to attend our next meeting, it is scheduled for 3/18, Tuesday at 3pm. Because there is only a few of us, we could really use the assistance of the social workers to help out with transportation. Could you please let me know if you have a teen foster youth who is interested?
Thank you for your help!
