  • Annual Report
    ANNUAL REPORT FY 2012-2013 As per County Ordinance, the Miami-Dade County Youth Commission is to submit an annual report to the Mayor and Board of County Commissioners of Miami-Dade County, Florida. The annual report contains both internal recommendations to continue the progress that was made during the 2012-13 fiscal year as well as external recommendations for consideration of the Mayor and Board of County Commissioners. OUR HISTORY The Miami-Dade County Youth Commission was created by County Ordinance in 2011 as part of the vision of Commissioner Barbara J. Jordan, District 1. Its purpose is to provide young people with a vehicle to participate in the process of county government. Motivated students from each Commission district represent and articulate the needs of youth in Miami-Dade and advise the Mayor and Board of County Commissioners on matters affecting the youth population. Through the collaborative efforts of Miami-Dade governmental officials and departments, Miami-Dade County Public Schools, and other community supporters, the Youth Commission is a positive model for young people: Officials hear firsthand what concerned teens have to say, have the opportunity to educate them about the governmental process, and create a symbiotic relationship between youth and County. The Miami-Dade County Youth Commission consists of twenty-six youth commissioners and four ex-officio commission members. These Youth Commissioners are handpicked by county commissioners through an interview and selection process in which the best-suited youth are selected to serve on the Miami-Dade Youth Commission. These Youth Commissioners provide a voice in the county government for the youth: the non-voting citizens of the county who are affected by the decisions of the elected officials.
