"In many ways, I saw myself as a bridge translating the lived experiences into something that could influence practice and policy...the story sharing brings the numbers to life. It gives emotion to all the data, context and it gives everybody a face. It's not just statistics, it's people's lives that we're talking about, and I feel like often that gets lost." John Dellick and host Rowan Willis-Gorman share what it is like to find the path from youth advocate to advocate for youth. This episode is part of a series featuring youth peer workers and recovery innovators discussing how to improve and uplift behavioral health systems for youth.

"I think now is as great a time as ever to start this work. I think now is when more and more dangerous legislation is becoming part of our everyday, and I think that anything and everything that we can do as individuals to help offset that and empower future generations, I think it's my duty and my responsibility to do that." Natalia Muñoz and Ash Wheeler share insights about youth peer support and mentorship with host Rowan Willis-Gorman. This episode is part of a series featuring youth peer workers and recovery innovators discussing how to improve and uplift behavioral health systems for youth. Mentorship is ingrained in most peer spaces, but is uniquely important in youth and near-age peer support, existing in the relationships between youth peer workers and the youth they serve and between youth peer workers as they develop their careers and hone their practice.
