MyCom Youth Corner
February Highlights Three area youth attended Advocacy Day 2018 at the Statehouse in Columbus on February 22.
Youth met with the legislative aides for Senators Bob Hackett and Mike Skindell and advocated for more funding for both before and after school programming. After listening to a keynote speaker while at lunch in the atrium, youth went on a guided tour of the statehouse.
Looking Ahead
