About Me
I have been in TAC for about 2 years now and I have had the most amazing time ever! I have something to look forward to on Friday mornings. Since it takes place really early on Friday, we, members have to get up really early to be apart of TAC! I love TAC so much that I am willing to do this but once I get there, I feel so much energy in the air and it’s just awesome. I love volunteering for TAC too because I get the opportunity to meet all these amazing people I get to call my friends and meet new people all the time through them through TAC itself as well as through volunteer opportunities and shadowing opportunities.
More Info
The Teen Advisory Council (TAC) began in 1988 with 12 students and now has over 100 high school members who meet at 5:55am every other Friday morning during the school year. TAC engages students from area high schools in youth-led leadership development and community service projects. The Council collectively contributes thousands of hours of service annually within our community. As TAC members, students plan and facilitate collaborative projects involving diverse community organizations, encourage civic responsibility among their peers, develop relationships with positive adult mentors, and build a stronger local community through their active leadership
TAC is led by an Executive Committee made up of elected officers (President, Vice President, Secretary, Historian) and the co-chairs of TAC’s nine committees. These high school students prepare all business of the Council and foster the success of their member-peers.
Serving on the Teen Advisory Council prepares students for the challenges they will face in the future as college students, employees, employers and volunteers while encouraging them to be a positive force in our community today.
What is YR Day?
YR Day is a 24-hour online party and fundraising event for YR and the people who make YR possible (that’s you). Whether you’re a student, alumni, parent, volunteer or just a fan with a special place in your heart for YR - this celebration is for you!
Now, you might be asking, “If YR Day is a celebration for me, then why am I being asked to give?”
The truth is, the life changing programs that YR provides to area youth are largely dependent on private support. So while celebrating YR’s present and past is definitely worthwhile, it’s also our responsibility to look ahead to future students. Their YR experiences are not yet guaranteed, which is why we ask for your help.
