Thanks Mayor Melvin Carter for hosting us this week and your support for Youth voice in decision making! Sprockets Right Track Saint Paul

This week, I had the opportunity to meet with our young leaders serving on our city boards and commissions as part of our Right Track Saint Paul Youth on Boards program. When we talk about building a longer table to ensure all voices are heard, that includes our youth. Their perspectives, experiences, and leadership is key to realizing our vision of a Saint Paul that works for everyone.

A great way to get involved in your community is to serve your community. Learn more about our Youth on Boards program: https://www.stpaul.gov/departments/parks-and-recreation/sprockets/resources-just-teens/youth-boards
