The Mayor's Youth Council empowers youth from across Chattanooga for the common purpose of building One Chattanooga. Mayor's Youth Council members represent the youth voice in city government, working alongside Mayor Tim Kelly and his administration to make Chattanooga the best city in the country to call home.

Mayor's Youth Council members are appointed to serve for one school year. Our 2023-2024 cohort is already underway. Applications for the next school year will open in the spring. Follow us on social media and complete our interest form to be notified when applications open!
