I have met some very talented young leaders from our community, and I’ve learned much about the comings and goings of municipal government. I highly recommend this program to anyone interested in politics or social work." - Chase La Rosa former YAC member This past year on the Youth Advisory Council has been a great one! Not only have I had the chance to meet an amazing group of young adults, I had an opportunity to work with amazing adults and city representatives who helped us throughout the year! Learning more about our city’s government and getting to help take actions to further our community is a blessing. I look forward to the next two years in YAC as we gain more awareness and change our community for the better!" - Caroline McCallum former YAC member Rockwall YAC has been an enlightening opportunity for me. Because of YAC, I have developed a greater understanding and appreciation of my local government. It has given me the opportunity to have a voice in my community.
