We are pleased to introduce the new Granville County Youth Leadership Council members for 22-23. This Council is in partnership with the Granville County Board of Commissioners and Granville County Cooperative Extension, and they represent a wide variety of backgrounds and perspectives in our community.
The purpose of this Council is to ensure that youth in the community have a voice, but most importantly, that their voices are heard, recognized, and valued. During their tenure, they will gain invaluable leadership skills through service on selected county boards, outreach, initiatives, and youth-led projects.
The GCYLC members were chosen from a pool of applicants comprised of students from high schools across Granville County. The term of office runs from September 2022-June 2023.
