2023 Youth Needs Assessment Survey Results

In 2023, we surveyed hundreds of San Diego youth to determine the top issues and priorities for youth in each region within San Diego. This survey allowed Youth Will to identify critical areas to youth for policy advocacy and community outreach. We compiled these results into a summary report, which you can check out below!
