YMCA OF GREATER TORONTO

Youth Advisory Committee (YAC) Members

The Youth Advisory Committee (YAC) reviews, advises, and makes recommendations to the YMCA of Greater Toronto’s Board of Directors about issues of importance to young people living in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). It provides young leaders ages 21–30 with an opportunity to engage in the governance of a charity. Members are committed to the YMCA of Greater Toronto’s values and deliver on its vision and mission. 

YAC has three key functions:

  1. Capacity building: Develop the leadership and governance skills of young leaders. 
  2. Actionable knowledge: Provide strategic advice to the Board of Directors based on research and insights gathered from the perspectives and lived experiences of YAC members and other young people living in the GTA. 
  3. Y champion: Represent and advocate for the YMCA of Greater Toronto at international, national, provincial, and local forums and community events.
