The Advocacy Process at Work
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Association of New York State Youth Bureaus is committed to advocating for our children and informing state elected officials and policy makers. Our mission to provide for the comprehensive well-being of the State's children, youth and families, can best be accomplished when all Youth Bureaus and the individuals and organizations they represent participate actively in our advocacy efforts.

The mechanism exists in New York State for long term and adequate funding to support programs for all youth, through the Youth Bureau System. Our goal is to ensure that leaders in government, business and our citizens understand the importance of sustainability.

As we move through the new millennium our legislative priorities include:

- Continued commitment to the development and promotion of positive youth development for all youth

- Emphasize local-level planning and decision-making that is at the foundation of the Youth Bureau system

- Utilize the Youth Bureau system for new and existing local and state initiatives directed at youth development during the out-of-school hours
