Applications for the 2017 NSW Youth Advisory Council are sought from young people with relevant life experience, a keen interest in youth affairs and/or experience in youth and community organisations. Schools are requested to encourage applications from suitable students. The closing date is Friday 30 September.

The Council plays an important role in guiding NSW Government youth affairs and raising the views of young people. It meets regularly throughout the year to discuss a range of relevant topics, as well as monitoring and evaluating youth-related policies and legislation which affect young people.

The 12 Council members, aged between 12 and 24, come from all over the State and are broadly representative of the diversity of young people living in NSW.
