Advocating for First Nations youth on issues that impact them on a daily basis.

Our Work We promote opportunities for youth to engage in important issues facing First Nations.

The AFN-NYC operates as a 22-member council of First Nations youth from each of the 11 AFN regions. Each region appoints two representatives of either the same or all genders/sexes, inclusive of 2SLGBTQQIA peoples, whose length of term depends on their regional process. The representatives are selected by regional youth councils or by their Regional Chief. The two current co-chairs of the AFN-NYC are Véronik Picard and Isaiah Bernard.
