Mission Statement:

To lead the youth of our community through volunteerism, service, and activities that are directed toward effective change.

The Kerman Youth Advisory Commission operates administratively under the Kerman Recreation, Parks & Community Services Department. Their role is to advise the Department in activities, events, and programs that will address the needs of Kerman’s youths. They advise recreation staff in the program planning of the year, participate in community service projects, and participate in writing and redefining their by-laws.

The Kerman Youth Commission is accepting new applicants for the 2009-2010 school year.  Applications can be obtained at the Community/Teen Center.
