Portage Youth Commission

Feb 2023 meeting
                                             MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to provide an opportunity for youth to have a formal role in the city's decision making through a representative commission that addresses youth issues to improve the quality of life.
We need youth input to function because we are representing young people. This community is shared by all young people, not just Portage Youth Commissioners. Youth now have a voice. We have an opportunity to voice our opinions and ideas. We, as the Portage Youth Commission, encourage you to get involved.
