Mayor's Youth Council
Mission Statement: To give Heidelberg youth the opportunity to provide input and insight on community issues, learn about municipal government, and network with youth councils across the state. They are to be a voice for youth and elders of the area and a bridge between the youth and the municipal officers.
Vision Statement: The Mayor’s Youth Council was created to ensure that the youth of Heidelberg are engaged, educated, and connected to the community.
The MYC provides an outlet for young leaders to discuss and take action to address issues that are important to Heidelberg’s youth. Members of the MYC have numerous opportunities to develop their personal leadership skills through community service by acting as a catalyst for youth engagement in community matters, through advocacy and educational efforts, and by representing their peers in the development and adoption of public policy. Heidelberg’s MYC strengthens their community through volunteerism and increased communication with the Mayor and other town departments to improve the quality of life for the citizens of Heidelberg.
