Youth Advisory Group
Our Youth Council is helping to shape the future of Wangaratta!
Our Youth Council is a group of up to 15 young people between the age of 12-18 who'd like to meet regularly to discuss youth issues, help organise youth & community events, take part in leadership forums and self-development activities. The group gives a voice to young people and have input into Council decisions. The Youth Council are appointed to one-year terms and are empowered to:
- Talk with other young people to find out what important issues they are facing.
- Provide advice to Council to ensure young people’s voices are heard.
- Undertake specific training and development to suit their individual interests.
- Create and organise youth and community events and initiatives to make our young people feel safe, supported and engaged.
- Work with other community groups to make our community a great place to be for everyone!
Applications for the Youth Council are open in October each year
