Our Sala Youth Advisory Council is made up of teens who can tell us what no one else can—what it’s really like to be a patient at Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital at NYU Langone.

The Youth Advisory Council, which meets monthly, is led by a pediatric social worker and a child life specialist. The council offered important input into the design of Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital—34th Street. Youth Advisory Council services are made possible through the expertise and resources of our Sala Institute for Child and Family Centered Care.
