YLAT Meetings

YLAT meetings are held statewide in Aroostook-Houlton, Bangor, Central ME, Lewiston, MidCoast, and So. Maine (Cumberland, Biddeford, & York) where youth ages 14-23 have FUN, learn leadership, problem-solving, and advocacy skills, and build youth-adult partnerships. Young people who continue their involvement with YLAT after their 23rd birthday become alumni participants. Transition Specialists let youth know where meetings are held and work out transportation to the meeting. To find a YLAT meeting near you, check out the YLAT Meeting Calendar.

YLAT Meeting Calendar

Young people who have experienced the foster care system are invited to become involved with YLAT. Adult partners participate in meetings to provide information and resources, support young people, and learn from youth members. Everyone is always welcome to attend YLAT meetings when they are able.

Our motto is “once a member, always a member.”
