Actions for Youth Engagement

  • Create a Youth Council or Commission to participate in City governance and share in decision-making around issues impacting youth.
  • Pilot a summer youth internship program within City departments, with targeted recruitment of low-income youth and youth from Priority Equity Communities, to address opportunity gaps via exposure to government.
  • Partner with local school districts to expand civics education in the existing curriculum, to co-host voter registration drives, and to encourage students to volunteer as poll workers and be engaged in City affairs.
