We celebrate an incredible group of young people who showed up, spoke up, listened, supported, laughed, connected and grew together. Each of your authentic selves provided the acceptance, the energy, and space where everyone belonged and mattered. This is what the YAB does... and what you all did. Our future is brighter because of each of you. We can't wait to see all the ways you continue to lead, inspire and make your mark on the world! Congratulations YAB 2026 Grads!

YAB...
“It is a place where I can go where I feel not alone.
I, oftentimes, find myself thinking that I feel alone in my feelings,
but after hearing other teens my age talk about how they feel,
it helps me to feel not so alone”
