The Town of Bradford West Gwillimbury is excited to announce that applications for their new Youth Council Advisory Committee are open now through October 7. BWG is looking for youth aged 12-18 who are eager to share their voice and champion youth initiatives within the community.
This is a unique opportunity for committee members to network, advocate, and collaborate with other youth residents of BWG while gaining invaluable leadership skills.
As a committee member you will:
- Make recommendations to Council regarding issues relevant to young people such as education, recreation, employment and public safety.
- Advise Town staff and elected officials on policies, programs and initiatives that impact youth.
- Organize events, projects and campaigns to address youth-related concerns and promote civic participation among peers.
“We are so excited to be able to have the Town give the youth of our community a platform to share their input on matters that impact or interest the youth of BWG while encouraging leadership growth and building a strong sense of community among young residents.” – Mayor James Leduc
The Town is looking to fill five youth seats to serve on the committee for a one-year term and will remain in office until their predecessor is elected. This is a volunteer position within the Town of BWG and can be used toward the required high school volunteer hours.
If you are passionate about making BWG a better place for youth then the Youth Council Advisory committee is for you!
