Youth in Government Students Propose Projects
Post Date:02/25/2026 1:30 PM
Students in the City's Youth in Government program recently presented their project proposals at the February 24 City Council meeting. The program provides students with hands on experience in local government while developing leadership skills and a deeper connection to their community.
Over the past several months, 26 students took on the roles of City Council and staff to develop proposals focused on enhancing City programs and services. This year's ideas included an Entrepreneur Fair designed to support young business ventures, as well as an Adaptive Awareness Campaign aimed at promoting inclusivity through art events, park programs, and expanded youth sports opportunities.
The Youth in Government program continues to make a lasting impact, with past student ideas leading to successful City initiatives such as the La Mirada Farmers Market and Santa's Holiday Caravan.
