Governance

Accountable to the public we serve.

Morgan Williams Youth Advocate Program Inc. operates as a public trust. Our work is guided by an independent board of directors, reviewed by a community advisory council, and made transparent through audited financials, public filings, and plain-language reporting. We answer to the young people and families we serve, the donors who fund our work, and the regulators who hold every public charity to a higher standard.
