Young people interested in representing their peers and making a difference, are invited to apply for the Yan Yean Youth Council.

Applications for the 2022 Council are now open – young people across the Yan Yean electorate, ages 16-24, are invited to nominate.

The Council provides young people in Yan Yean with a unique leadership role within the community.

Participants will be given the opportunity to explore and share their opinions and ideas, while actively engaging with decision-making processes.

The Council will be coordinated by the office of Danielle Green, Yan Yean MLA, and will meet regularly throughout the year.

Last year’s Councillors made their voices heard at a Youth Roundtable hosted by the Minister for Youth, built their leadership skills by helping run our local Clean Up Australia Day event, and supported their peers by creating mental health resources in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Applications close Monday, February 7.
