This council was formed in order to engage 7th through 12th graders, living in the Lewiston School District Boundary, to instill the importance of civil values and develop civic skills. These are accomplished by critical thinking, problem-solving, communication, and practical, hands-on experiences. The City is committed to its future workforce, providing opportunities to help youth expand their knowledge and gain experiences through volunteerism and in public service careers. Goals are decided by current issues impacting youth. Students develop goals and projects that are impacting their peers.
For those interested in applying, please fill out the form and return to Raymond Pedrina at rpedrina@cityoflewiston.org or mail to 1424 Main Street.
