About the commission

The Youth Commission was created by Harford County Code Article VII to help advise the County Executive and other county officials on the services available to and the needs of the youth in the County and make recommendations on how the county can create a healthier atmosphere and environment for county youth.

Youth who participate in the commission will benefit by earning community service hours while gaining leadership experience and influencing activities within their communities.
