Below you will find the Teen Advisory Board Online Application to apply to be a member of the 2022-2023 board. 

This application will ask you to list two adult references (name, phone number, and email), be sure to have those ready before starting your application. Adult references can include a My Future-My Choice Classroom Facilitator or Coordinator, a coach, youth/club leader, or teacher.
