Ask an Advisor Answers

Question: Hello- I'm just revisiting the community tool box site, as I'm working on a very targeted initiative. I'm working on developing a young adult advisory team for the department of health in Vermont (with members 18-25 years old). Right now, I'm trying to get a sense as to what other folks are doing to reach this population--just so I have a broad context to focus my efforts (whether it's state or community driven). Do you have any tools that can help me in my quest to reach this targeted population in an engaging & meaningful way? Or maybe tools that can help me organize and structure the young adult advisory team's interactions even? I'm going to continue perusing the site...as it's very helpful. Any guidance you may have is very much appreciated! Best, Connie
