Northern Home for Children's Advocacy Council was created in 2004 to provide strategic guidance to the Home's management team and Board of Trustees. Members are a source of advice and counsel in the achievement of the Home's mission and are able to determine for themselves how best they can contribute. Members are, as available, involved in individual meetings and telephone conversations with agency staff and board members throughout the year.

The Advocacy Council will meet formally once per year and as needed at other times. The members of the Advocacy Council are asked to understand and support Northern Home's mission of providing assistance to at-risk youth and their families and to provide insight and recommendations to Northern Home's management team and Board of Trustees. For more information and to get involved, please contact the Advocacy Council Chair at advisorycouncil@northernhome.org.
