Youth POWER Overview

YouthPOWER gives young people the opportunity to voice their opinions and make important decisions on issues that affect them.  The program helps youth discover and understand what the greatest needs are in the community and allows them to decide the best approach to solving the problems.  The young people distribute money, from a dedicated fund, to organizations and groups that apply to the youth board for a grant.
