Welcome to CHS Youth

The home of the City of Charleston’s Mayor’s Youth Council (MYC) and the Youth Volunteer Corps (YVC) of Charleston

Mayor’s Youth Council

The MYC provides young people with the opportunity to learn about civic government and the priority projects of the Mayor.  The purpose is to engage with youth to get their input and proposed solutions on the projects and challenges the city is facing. Additionally, council members meet with the Mayor to provide input, leadership and ideas on effective solutions to the most pressing issues and problems facing young people.
