Mayor’s Advisory Council on Youth recruiting new members

Now that school is back in session students in grades 9 through 12 are invited to apply for positions on the Mayor’s Advisory Council on Youth.

The group, called MACOY, meets once a month and participates in many events in the region.

“We are encouraging youth in grade 9 -12 to apply for the 2016/2017 MACOY season,” said Seville Kwan, Community Strategies Coordinator. “MACOY is a great way for students to become more involved with their community, be a voice for their fellow youth, and collectively work towards a common goal.”

Members are empowered to become actively engaged citizens and will get to experience meaningful and educational opportunities throughout the year.
