Youth Commission

The South Suburban Youth Commission gives teens in grades 7 - 11 the opportunity to become involved in their community and in South Suburban events and activities. Commissioners have the chance to become creative leaders by organizing fundraisers, hosting service projects and partaking in fun activities with their peers.

The 2020 Youth Commission pictured above was approved by the South Suburban Board of Directors on Wed, December 11, 2019.
