he Salem Youth Commission provides an advocacy and information platform for youth representatives to get more engaged in City issues, helping to recommend new programs and events, craft initiatives in partnerships with other City boards and departments, local non-profits, and businesses, and suggest ideas for new policies or regulations for the City to consider. The members also help share news and information about important city projects and programs with the youth of the community. Finally, there are opportunities for leadership development training through guest speakers, workshops, special programs, and more.
