Teenagers who want to be a voice for their peers and make a difference in their community are encouraged to apply to become a member of the City of Port St. Lucie Youth Council.

• Learn about local government
• Earn community service hours
• Build leadership skills
• Build public speaking and training opportunities
• Provide their input and feedback to City leaders
The 2024-25 Youth Council featured more than 45 members, a significant jump from the nine students who participated in the inaugural council.
