Asking for a Friend: Youth Advisory Board - Call for Members


ABOUT ASKING FOR A FRIEND

Asking for a Friend (AFF) is the first digital one-stop shop platform designed to provide answers to young people’s sex, relationship, and identity questions and help them access the sexual and reproductive healthcare they want and need, no matter where they live. AFF’s goal is to provide an accessible bridge to action for young people across the United States, revolutionizing the way that young people access health care. By increasing their agency to make their own sexual health decisions and creating frictionless access to services, youth can get what they need on their own terms. 

YOUTH ADVISORY BOARD

Members will be paid for their time and expertise.
