Join the NPAIHB Youth Delegate Program!
The Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board’s (NPAIHB) Youth Delegates are a group of Native youth (ages 15-24) who represent the tribes in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. They collaborate to share their voice on health programs and policies and learn more about health and wellness careers. Youth Delegates serve a 1-year term and are the official youth policy-making body for the Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board and its member tribes.
Youth Delegates provide recommendations to the NPAIHB and other state and federal agencies about health programs and policies that affect young people. Participants meet several times throughout the year – one in-person at an NPAIHB Quarterly Board Meeting (3 days) and monthly virtual meetings. Virtual meetings typically last around 45 minutes; students can attend via mobile phone or computer. Additional leadership opportunities may also be a possibility.
Apply today! The application is open for new and returning applicants and closes May 30, 2023: www.surveymonkey.com/r/NPAIHBYouthDelegate2023 · Learn more: www.npaihb.org/youth-delegate/
