The Texas Municipal League and Youth Programs

The formation of youth advisory commissions (YAC) in cities across the state is a priority of the TML Board of Directors. In 2003, then-TML President Jackie Levingston championed the issue, and today more than 60 Texas cities have programs that involve youth. This initiative provides cities with energetic volunteers for civic projects, gives city leaders a fresh prospective on issues challenging our cities, and creates a sense of accomplishment for our youth.
