Request a Youth Speaker

Have a Youth Representative Come Out to Your Next Event!

Are you looking to have a youth representative come out to your next event? Great! One of the best ways for youth to get involved in the movement is to empower them with the knowledge and power to become their own change agents. Youth M.O.V.E. National currently accomplishes this by offering a wide selection of speaking and training engagements tailored to your needs. Whether you’re a new youth group looking to create a strong peer-to-peer support committee, a bustling youth group looking to increase your funding options for sustainability purposes, or a family organization looking to become youth allies to youth-guided care, we have a youth representative and an engagement for every occasion.

Ready to get started? Perfect!

Online Engagement Form Coming Soon!

Important Note: Engagement request forms must be received at least 30 days in advance of your requested event date. This allows our staff adequate time to process your engagement request. Please also note that while we will do our best to find a youth representative for your event, we cannot guarantee that we’ll be able to fulfill your request if there are no suitable youth representatives available during your requested date. It’s highly recommended that you submit an engagement request as early as possible so that you can secure a youth representative for your event.

Current Represenatives, Types of Engagements Offered and the Engagement Request Process

Our Current Youth Representatives

Our representatives come from various, diverse backgrounds. Each youth representative has numerous years experience in public speaking for both youth groups and adults, speaking on the general idea of youth involvement. Each representative also has their own experience and skills that lend themselves to topics such as bullying, LGBTQI2S, etc. in the various youth serving systems (mental health, juvenile justice, foster care, child welfare, etc.). When an engagement request is submitted, Youth M.O.V.E. National staff will try to pair the best representative for the topics you want addressed, based on the representatives’ availability.

Types of Engagements Offered

We offer different types of engagements for youth groups, youth allies, and partner organizations.

The Engagement Request Process

We currently have a process in place for fulfilling engagement requests.
