Youth in Government
In this month's episode Brayden and Sonakshi sit down with former state senator, Ellen Stuart Roberts, and two members of the Colorado Youth Advisory Council, Bhavya Surapaneni and Sidd Nareddy, to discuss the important role of youth voice in crafting legislation. COYAC members not only advise legislators on issues that directly affect youth, but they also craft policy. Sidd and Bhavya share about their current policy efforts around substance use, eating disorders and mental health.
