The Events Committee plans each Network meeting and other large-scale events and organizes the Network's presence at national and regional conferences. The Publications Committee develops fact sheets and bulletins on how youth can get involved in their communities for the Network's Youth in Action series and coordinates information for the Network's Web site. The Public Policy Committee produces materials to involve youth in understanding the legislative and advocacy processes and informs youth of legislation impacting young people. The Public Relations Committee conducts media training and distributes information to youth- focused newsletters and the press. The role of the sponsors is to help their youth representatives.
Youth are able to use whatever resources their sponsoring organizations can contribute.
