The Indiana Youth Advisory Board (IYAB) is comprised of current and former foster youth throughout the State of Indiana, from ages 14-23. Regional meetings are hosted quarterly and provide an open and confidential environment for youth to share their experience, ultimately determining new approaches to make a positive impact on in both their personal lives and the child welfare system. 

Involvement on the Board offers unique opportunities for leadership and to educate child welfare professionals on youth experience in care. YAB members will have the opportunity to advocate for their peers at various conference and events throughout the year, gaining direct professional experience and networking with other young adults and key community stakeholders in Older Youth Services.
