Senator Eric Schmitt is proud to sponsor the Senator’s Youth Council¸ which offers driven young Missourians a chance to gain unique hands-on experience in government, work on engaging civics projects, and have an opportunity to meet with various elected officials across the state. Throughout the course of the Youth Council program, Councilors will draft mock legislation and/or develop policy projects focusing on contemporary issues, conduct research into the foundations of our representative form of government, and attend local government functions to experience the democratic process first-hand.
