Nominate a Trusted Adult Today!

Nominate someone 18+ who supports and encourages young people in the community.

Adults in our community have a huge impact on our youth. To celebrate adults who support North Reading youth through their availability and openness, the Trusted Adult Award is given to community adults who make a difference in children's lives. North Reading Youth Services and the Community Impact Team are excited to present awards to Trusted Adults who make a difference!

Any youth (up to age 22) is welcome to nominate any adult (age 18+) who lives or works in North Reading by completing the form at www.northreadingma.gov/Youth. If needed, an adult can type out the nomination form for a youth. Examples of past nominees include teachers, counselors, librarians, and public safety officers. Youth are welcome to nominate multiple trusted adults.

Nominations are open through April 30th. In May, a committee will determine the winners. Those selected will be presented with a physical award and announced to the media.
