DC-YLC is looking for curious, creative, and responsible students who are interested in building connections with like-minded peers while making meaningful change in their community! Applicants must be grades 9 through 12 in Delaware County. There is no experience necessary.

Any student interested in making a positive impact in their community is encouraged to apply. Members may be curious, creative, responsible, and respectful, but every student is unique and we encourage you to bring your own skills and style to the council.

The application for 2024-2025 DC-YLC is closed. If you have completed the application prior to the closing, you will be notified by email with a decision.

DC-YLC will meet once a month from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Meeting dates will be determined based on applicants' availability. Our locations will change each month but will be announced at the meeting before. Locations may include places like local libraries, parks, COHatch or HelpLine.

Nope! There is no fee or cost to join the DC-YLC.
