We are 16 high school students appointed by the City Manager to serve one-year renewable terms. We live in the City of Boulder and represent many aspects of Boulder's youth community including diverse cultures and backgrounds. Our mission is to take action to ensure that youth voices are represented in city government’s decisions through the framework of UNICEF'S Child Friendly Cities Initiative.
Applications are open year round to current and rising high school students living in the City of Boulder (including most of Gunbarrel).
Regardless of previous leadership experience, members should be prepared to engage in meaningful discussion and action with city officials, community organizations, and fellow board members.
New members are invited to join based on the potential for positive contributions to the board’s work and capacity to represent the diversity of Boulder’s youth community.
