We’re so excited to announce we’re now accepting applications for our 2027-2028 Youth Advisory Board cohort! Are you a young person between the ages of 15 to 24 who is eager to get involved in your community and beyond, or know someone who is? Then keep reading to learn more!
Since our founding nearly 15 years ago, Born This Way Foundation has always been shaped and guided by young people, and our Youth Advisory Board members play a key role in helping us carry out research, programs, and campaigns that are central to our mission. Youth Advisory Board members also serve as ambassadors for our work in their communities and beyond.
While we welcome applicants from around the globe, we will also be specifically looking for applicants from the following countries: Brazil, Canada, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
Want to know more about the experience? Learn from a few of our current Youth Advisors directly.
Need more information? Join us for a 60-minute virtual information session on August 25 at 11 AM ET (click here to RSVP!) or September 15 at 7 PM ET (click here to RSVP!). You’ll have the opportunity to ask questions about the program and learn directly from a current Youth Advisory Board member about their experience. And if you can’t make it, that’s ok! We’ll share a recording after with registered participants.
Youth Advisory Board applications are due by September 30, 2026 at 11:59 PM ET. Click here to apply to join our 2027-2028 cohort!
We can’t wait to learn more about you, your ideas, and how you hope to build a kinder, braver world.
