Youth Advolution for Health (YAH) is Singapore’s first youth-led health advocacy programme aimed at empowering youth to advocate for a healthy lifestyle, engaging youth in an interactive manner in the various health issues and concerns and also by encouraging youth to be inspired to come up with revolutionary and creative methods of promoting health among their peers. This programme is supported by the Health Promotion Board (HPB) and targets at youth aged 17-25.
First launched in September 2005, YAH started off with only 6 passionate youth, focusing only on smoke-free messages. Now, YAH has expanded to a big family of over 50 members and the topics have also expanded to include sexual health, mental wellness, nutrition and regular physical activity as well.

Following a highly successful reorganisation of its structure, YAH has returned bigger and better with a host of new activities and events through music, fashion, sports and friendship, giving the youths an avenue to maximize their talents and potential to make a difference in the lives of their peers.
