# Updating your profile information

Edit your contact information, reset a password, manage notifications, and update your profile picture in your YouthCenter User Profile. Click directly onto your username in the top left corner to access your profile:

Next, click on Edit Profile:

Use these fields to update your name, contact information, and employee information. You can also choose to get YouthCenter notifications by text (Send Notifications under Primary Phone) and/or email (Send Notifications under Email Address). If you don't have notifications active, you will still get alerts within the site (notification bell). For information in Portal Settings, see the documentation [**here**](https://docs.youthcenter.net/docs/sharing-team-member-contact-information-in-the-portal/).

Your profile picture defaults to an icon of your first initial. We recommend sticking with this for clarity but you can change your avatar by selecting from our options or uploading your own:

Once you've saved your profile updates, return to the dashboard by clicking on the Dashboard icon or the YouthCenter logo in the upper left.
