Kentucky Youth Advocates Inc

For nearly 50 years, Kentucky Youth Advocates (KYA) has worked to improve child well-being, public policies, and systems that influence the lives of children, families, and communities. KYA is the only multi-issue, statewide child advocacy organization in Kentucky and is unique in the role it plays to improve systems that children interact with. As the independent voice for Kentucky's children, we work to ensure policymakers create investments and policies that are good for all children and help amplify the voices of kids and families. We mobilize Advocates to take action on behalf of kids and families through rallies, advocacy trainings, partnerships, and action alerts. We conduct research and education that informs and recommends solutions to help kids succeed. Lastly, we engage Youth and young adults by training the next generation of leaders to advocate for themselves and their communities.
