Youth Advisory Council

Summary

The Youth Advisory Council (YAC) is a fun and structured way for youth to share their opinions and perspectives on our programming, policies, and strategic direction. Our Council members will also be able to participate in workshops about food systems and leadership, and will work together to build on self-selected skills!

The YAC’s activities may include online meetings, workshops, independent research, and review of staff’s task priorities. We ask all members be able to contribute 2-3 hours each week of time between mid-January and mid-June.
