YEC Banner

The Mount Vernon Youth Empowerment Council (YEC) is an advisory body comprised of local high school youth who provide ideas, and counsel to the Youth Bureau, local governing body, as well as other community organizations.  Students can communicate their concerns regarding local matters that affect them, strategize a plan of action, and potentially improve the quality of life for themselves and their peers.

Through civic engagement and community service, participants will build confidence, strengthen their communication, leadership, research, and critical thinking skills on a path to becoming contributing members of their families, schools, and communities.
