Our mission is to SUPPORT, EDUCATE and GROW our communities by fostering meaningful CONNECTIONS in order to INSPIRE CONVERSATIONS that empower the voices of today.

The founding Youth Advisory Board was composed of friends of Imogen who had a desire to remain connected to her and each other, and who were uniquely qualified to shape the mission and vision of the Imogen Foundation in its formative years. In order to stay true to that mission and vision, it is essential that IF continues to have formal youth involvement in perpetuity. Projects initiated and implemented by each generation of YAB members will continue to drive the direction of IF in an organic way. The Imogen Foundation was founded in response to a profound loss. Being a part of the YAB is an opportunity to find purpose and togetherness, while doing our part to build a world of which Imogen would be proud.
