About the Mayor's Youth Advisory Council
When Mayor Tammy de Weerd became mayor in January 2004, youth involvement was one of her top priorities. In Fall of 2004, she created the Mayor's Youth Advisory Council (MYAC).
The MYAC is made up of students who live in Meridian, are ages 14 to 18, and attend one of Meridian's high schools or are home-schooled.
The group meets twice a month at Meridian's Police Department to discuss issues that affect area youth. It is a council that is run by youth for youth.
MYAC members also have opportunities to plan and participate in a variety of community service projects, and to sit as non-voting members of various City commissions, committees, and focus groups.
