Organizational Consulting and Adult Trainings

We want to partner with you to help your organization be youth-driven, and to be better prepared to do truly effective work with young people. MYAN knows that your staff already has tremendous skills and experience – our goal is to enhance their youth engagement skills and improve youth-oriented program outcomes.

We have supported organizations – both large and small – to enhance their youth engagement chops. Our team is prepared to offer a wide array of services, ranging from one-off-trainings, curriculum design, and ongoing program consultation. Here are some of the topics on which we’ve previously worked:

  • Youth leadership curriculum development
  • Support for marginalized youth in communities
  • Youth organizing and advocacy foundations
  • Facilitation skill development
  • Youth-led culture change
  • Foundations of youth engagement
  • Support launching youth programs
  • Neuroscience-informed programming

Regardless of the topic area, working with MYAN could be a great opportunity if you are looking to bring young people more intentionally into your organization’s programming or decision making!

Sliding scale available; contact MYAN for more information.

Trainings for Young People

Trainings for youth audiences are built upon our team’s interactive facilitation style and participatory methods of youth engagement. We bring significant experience leading workshops, delivering keynotes, and providing technical assistance directly to youth leaders. You can expect our team of skilled facilitators to deliver energetic trainings that are tailored to meet your group’s unique needs.

We have a robust library of youth-focused trainings that can be tailored to meet your organization’s needs. Here are some of our most requested training topics:

  • Youth leadership
  • Team building and group culture development
  • Social equity and racial justice
  • Identity and bias
  • Youth-led action research
  • Communication skills, and much more.

They MYAN team is prepared to offer both in person and virtual trainings. Regardless of the platform, we are always on hand to offer follow up support and mentoring to the young people with whom we work.
