June 2, 2010 by ash_vandiver

In response to a outbreak of youth violence in 2008, Governor Patrick created the Governor's Statewide Youth Council.  With the 2008-2010 Youth Council term coming to an end, Massachusetts youth and young adults that are passionate, motivated and emerging leaders ages 14-20 are encouraged to apply. The council will be selecting 28 new Youth Council members to represent Massachusetts' 14 counties. Their responsibilities will include attending monthly meetings and conference calls, advocating for youth issues and incorporating the ideas of other youth and young adults into the creation of effective policy. Anyone interested in joing the Governor's Statewide Youth Council should apply no later than June 25, 2010.
