Youth Advocate - Maricopa County

YAP is committed to providing excellent service to our program participants, their parents and guardians, and other individuals and families we serve. Recognizing that more than 70 percent of our program participants are Black and Brown, we see our work as key to bringing racial equity to youth justice, child welfare and other YAP systems partners where disparities have persisted for decades. We regularly review our programs and provide development for YAP’s employees that includes racialized trauma training and other career development opportunities to identify, address and eradicate racism and discrimination in our internal and external policies, procedures, and practices.
