The El Dorado County Youth Commission (YC) works alongside the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors to ensure the voice of today's youth are heard. The YC is operated through the University of California Cooperative Extension 4-H Youth Development Program in coordination with the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors.  The YC meets, the third Thursday of the month in committee session, and the second and the fourth Tuesday of the month in board session during the school calendar year. (with the exception of late November and December). The YC, representing youth from all geographic areas of the county, first assembles at the fall retreat to do team building and initiate plans for the upcoming year. Following the retreat the regularly scheduled calendar of committee and board meetings begin. 

Youth from the community are encouraged to come to one of our regularly scheuduled meetings to learn how to take action! If the youth decides to participate on a regular basis through committee work with the YC, then  the youth must enroll in the 4-H Youth Development Program. For more information on how to be involved or enroll, call Carol Martin at 530-621-5507.
