Youth can play an extremely important role in enhancing adolescent health efforts; however existing structures of power often deter meaningful youth participation in decisions that impact their lives. To bridge this gap, PATCH Teen Consultants offer Consulting Sessions. These virtual meetings bring youth and professionals together, creating space for youth to voice their feedback and ideas and space for professionals to improve their projects and programs.

 

Consulting Sessions are typically 60-90 minute virtual, focus group-style meetings. Consulting sessions are valued at $300, but we are currently able to waive the fee for Wisconsin organizations when needed, due to grant support. Clients are supported throughout the process by a PATCH Coordinator who will support session preparation and facilitate the session itself, allowing clients to take notes, ask additional follow up questions, and answer questions raised by youth.

 

PATCH Teen Consultants are now open to scheduling consulting sessions! If you are interested in learning more information or would like to discuss setting up a session, please contact consulting@wipatch.org or click the button below to fill out a request.
