Ask Youth Challenge

Participate in the Ask Youth Challenge on social media by using the Ask Youth graphics and #AskYouthChallenge to show that you are committed to listening to teens and are practicing making their voices heard in every conversation. Take some time to reflect on how to use every opportunity to ask youth about their journey, get their perspectives, and establish trust. Use the resources on the Adoption Resources for Professionals page to create engaging conversations about adoption and permanency options. Challenge yourself to incorporate thoughtful questions on tough topics in your case planning during National Adoption Month and throughout the year. Make sure to share the Ask Youth Challenge in your newsletters, emails, or blogs, and remember to invite your colleagues to show their commitment too!
