Redmond’s Human Services Commission Seeks Youth Advisor

REDMOND, WA – The City of Redmond is seeking a youth advisor for its Human Services Commission. The Commission oversees a broad spectrum of human service topics in Redmond including housing, hunger, health care, counseling, domestic violence, and family support.

Youth advisors should be high school or college-aged, have a strong interest in the topics, a willingness to learn, and the ability to present a youth perspective in all human services decision making. Youth advisors must either live in or attend school in Redmond.

The Commission meets virtually on the second Monday of each month from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. Once the COVID-19 state of emergency is lifted, meetings will be held at Redmond City Hall. All board and commission members are volunteers.
