The Chapel Hill Youth Council’s mission is to shape the future of our town by amplifying the views and opinions of youth, influencing local decision making, and developing community-oriented service projects and social activities. CHYC is a chartered member of the State Youth Council, which provides an opportunity for teens to serve as leaders (President, Secretary, etc.) on state boards (State Youth Council, Youth Legislative Assembly, Youth Advocacy Board). Participation is open to all high school aged students, including those who are homeschooled.
