This November, we're focusing on building our collective voice with a two-part policy and campaign webinar series that will help us understand and respond to the policy landscape.
Our first session will be led by Children and Young People Social Policy Specialist, Richard Crellin and Youth Access Policy and Campaigns Manager, Sarah Uncles. It will explore national policy developments, as well as steps and resources to support members locally. The second session will focus solely on taking action, responding to the policy landscape collectively as a network.
Session I: Understanding the policy landscape
What's changing and what it means for you
This session aims to inform members about current national policy developments affecting youth provision, access the local impact of policy changes and equip members with tactical, action-oriented steps and resources for local engagement.
The session will cover what is happening nationally and what impact this might have for members locally. We'll follow up the session with some valuable resources for you to use in your organisation.
Join us on November 5th to be a part of our collective voice
When: 9:00 -10:30 am, November 5th

Session II: Working together
Responding to the policy landscape as a network
This follow-up session will focus on working together as a national collective force. We'll explore how Youth Access currently operates and the best approaches to collaboration with and among members and young people. We aim to inform action-oriented steps for future national influencing work.
This session is an action-oriented follow-up, giving space for members to shape what's next and how we get there.
