Las Vegas City Council To Recognize Raise The Future Organization

Citizen Of The Month To Also Be Recognized

The Las Vegas City Council will recognize Raise The Future, an organization that works to connect youth in foster care to a permanent family at the Feb. 4, 2026, City Council meeting that will begin at 9 a.m. in Council Chambers on the second floor of City Hall, located at 495 S. Main St.

Mayor Pro Tem Brian Knudsen will recognize Raise The Future for its work in Las Vegas to create wraparound services to reduce the amount of time youth in foster care are waiting to be adopted into a permanent family.

In addition, Ward 3 Councilwoman Olivia Diaz will recognize the February 2026 Citizen of the Month, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Capt. Adam Seely. Capt. Seely serves as the commander of Metro's Downtown Area Command and works closely with the community and Councilwoman Diaz to implement programs that increase safety and serve the citizens of Las Vegas. His efforts, and the work of his entire team, are showing great results in furthering public safety.

Finally, the City Council will recognize the Lunar New Year and the celebrations happening throughout the city. To celebrate, the Lohan School of Shaolin lion dancers will perform in honor of the Year of the Horse.

The meeting will be broadcast live on city of Las Vegas TV, and on the city of Las Vegas TV YouTube channel.
