Applications sought for Marin County Youth Commission

Marin County Youth Commission is one of the oldest and most well regarded youth commissions in the country. MCYC’s goal is to act as a political voice for young people to the Marin County Board of Supervisors and other policy makers.

The group conducts research throughout the county to determine how best to make an impact and has worked to improve youth services, tackle educational equity issues, improve transportation options, raise awareness around environmental issues, coordinate student-run elections, and raise awareness about youth homelessness.

Anyone residing in Marin County between the ages of 12-23 can be on the Youth Commission.
