Perry Youth Advisory Council Accepting Applications

The City of Perry will begin accepting applications for the 2023-2024 Youth Advisory Council on August 1.

Interested students must complete a Statement of Interest and a short interview conducted in-person or virtually.

Applicants should have an interest in local government and how it functions, be able to commit to serving one full term, be in good academic standing, and free of any serious disciplinary actions at their respective school. Members must also be a current Perry resident.

Applicants must be a current Perry resident, 16-18 years old, and enrolled in a Perry area high school – including homeschoolers.

The deadline to apply for consideration is August 21.
