Seattle Youth Commission — youth community meeting

The Seattle Youth Commission is a group of 22 Seattleites aged 13-19 from all over the city who are appointed by the Mayor and City Council to connect youth to their elected officials.

They do this in three main ways:

1. Hosting Youth Community Meetings throughout the city to hear directly from young people.
2. Using input from the forums to advise and influence the Mayor and City Council.
3. Hosting the annual Youth Town Hall, which gives all of Seattle's youth the opportunity to talk directly to their Mayor and City Councilmembers.

There's a Youth Community Meeting coming up at Rainier Community Center from 4-6 pm on Tuesday, November 9th; it'll be a great chance for local teenagers to come out and talk to the Youth Commissioners and let them know what your most important issues are.

You can visit our Facebook event page, and we also have information about all of the Youth Community Meetings posted at seattle.gov.
