The Douglas County Youth Initiative is a collaboration among Douglas County Government, Douglas County Schools, Douglas County Libraries, the City of Castle Pines, the City of Lone Tree, the Town of Castle Rock, the Town of Parker, and the Highlands Ranch Metro District. The goal of this collaboration is to involve high school students in decisions that affect them.
Applications are now being accepted for youth who want to represent their peers on the Douglas County Youth Initiative’s Advisory Board.
Youth voices are needed on the Douglas County Youth Initiative Advisory Board. Students who will be in ninth through 12th grade in the fall of 2023 are invited to submit their application to serve as a Youth Advisor on the board.
Students should attend a public, charter, private or home school within Douglas County and be available for monthly meetings and periodic functions. Applications are available below and are due Sunday, Jan. 15, 2023. Two letters of recommendation are required as part of the application process and may not be from a parent/guardian.
Interviews will be conducted the week of Feb. 6, and members will be selected by early March.
