What is Eureka Youth Council?
Eureka Youth Council is a unique program designed to give Eureka teens the opportunity to learn about local city government while working on projects that can have a positive impact on the community. Four members ages 14-18 will be chosen for Youth Council.
Through this program selected members will engage with local leaders and feel empowered while at the same time evolving their critical thinking skills and developing the civic leadership skills needed to represent their generation. Youth Council will have the honor of participating in City Council meetings with the opportunity to present research on specific agenda items. Members are expected to commit to a total of 3 meetings per month (the first two Thursdays of the month that follow the first Tuesday City Council meeting of the month and the third Tuesday of the month, unless specified otherwise). Each meeting will run 1½ to 2 hours and will be a hybrid of virtual and in-person depending on the scenario and current state of public health.
