ANNOUNCING OUR GROUP YOUTH ADVOCATES OF THE YEAR
We're thrilled to announce that this year we will present our Group Youth Advocates of the Year Award to Kentucky’s #iCANendthetrend Youth Advisory Board, represented by three exceptional youth: Jasmin Hernandez, Ksenia Miller and Saumya Sikhwal.
About the #iCANendthetrend Youth Advisory Board
The #iCANendthetrend Youth Advisory Board is a passionate group of Kentucky high school students who share a vision for ending youth tobacco use. Collectively, they aim to use the power of policy advocacy to create change in their communities.
Earlier this year, group members organized and led an advocacy summit at the Kentucky State Capitol. Over 100 youth from across the state came together to push for stronger enforcement of Kentucky’s law prohibiting the sale of tobacco products to anyone under the age of 21. Students met with state legislators, engaged with the media, and joined together to make their voices heard. Their impact went well beyond the walls of the state Capitol, influencing public opinion and policy discourse statewide.
While this award honors the collective efforts of the #iCANendthetrend Youth Advisory Board, we're delighted to highlight the efforts of leaders Jasmin, Ksenia and Saumya who are working tirelessly to create the first tobacco-free generation.
