Fri, 04/14/2023 - 12:35pm

The Office of the Howard County Executive is seeking a diverse group of youth ages 13 -25 to participate in a yearlong work group beginning at the end of April. The purpose of the workgroup is to inform the Office of topics of interest and importance to youth in an effort to include them as equal partners in the decision-making process of county government.  Potential topics include, but are not limited to, policy, operations, climate change, safety and more. Youth participants will meet monthly for approximately 2 hours in a hybrid format.  This is a phenomenal opportunity to partner with the Office of Howard County Executive Calvin Ball on a youth engagement initiative. Participants will receive student services hours to support high school graduation requirements, as applicable. All interested youth should complete the interest form by Tuesday, April 18th at 4:00pm.
