I have attended and observed a lot of city meetings and public arts commission meetings. I also am involved in school clubs like enlightenment club and bible club that discuss issues that youth at our school face and what we can do to help.
What issues would you address or activities would you plan if you were a Council Member? Issues I would address is lack of youth participation and preparation for their future. A problem I also notice is that there are no life skills being taught to the youth that can be addressed. Another issue that I look forward to solving is that there aren't that many youth activities in the city. -
