Youth M.O.V.E National is a youth led national organization devoted to improving services and systems that support positive growth and development by uniting the voices of individuals who have lived experience in various systems including mental health, juvenile justice, education, and child welfare. Participation is open to ALL with at least 60% of members being youth aged 13-25. The members of Youth M.O.V.E.
