The Youth Advocate Award is presented to a young person (under the age of 18 or a current K-12 student) who has worked diligently over the past year as an advocate, initiating positive change for themselves, their peers, their communities, or statewide. We are so proud of our 2025 Youth Advocate nominees listed below, for their dedication and hard work at such a young age! Thank you for everything you’ve done for your schools, youth organizations, local communities and our state.
Congratulations to our 2025 Youth Advocate Award winner Christopher Page (Page by Page National Book Drive Program), for his on-going advocacy efforts in support of childhood literacy.
