MARYLAND, August 10 - For Immediate Release: Wednesday, October 8, 2025
Students are encouraged to share their views with Councilmembers and will receive student-service learning hours for advocacy
The Montgomery County Council will host a Youth Town Hall meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 5 at 7 p.m. at the Council Office Building in Rockville. This annual meeting with students promotes youth engagement in community and public policy issues and allows Councilmembers to hear directly from young people about their concerns and views.
"I look forward to the Council’s Youth Town Hall every year, as it allows us to engage directly with students, who are not just the next generation of leaders but leading today,” said Council President Kate Stewart. “At a time when our national politics are turbulent and aimed at dividing us, the voices of our young people remind us of the values that unite us as we work together to shape a better future. Listening to the aspirations and priorities of our students helps inform the Council’s policymaking.”
Student Member of the Montgomery County Board of Education Anuva Maloo will attend the Youth Town Hall and kick off the question-and-answer period. Montgomery County Board of Education President Julie Yang and Superintendent Dr. Thomas Taylor will also join the town hall as well as other members of the Board of Education.
The Youth Town Hall will take place in the Council’s Hearing Room on the third floor of the Council Office Building, which is located at 100 Maryland Ave. in Rockville. Visitor information can be viewed on the Council's website.
The Council will also host a pizza reception for students who attend the Youth Town Hall starting at 6:15 p.m. at the Council Office Building.
Students who are unable to join the meeting in person can participate through a Zoom webinar. The Zoom information will be provided to students who register for remote participation.
The Youth Town Hall will be streamed live on the Council’s web page via YouTube (MoCoCouncilMD) and on Facebook Live (MontgomeryCountyMdCouncil) and broadcast on County Cable Montgomery on Channels 30 (Fios), 1056 (RCN) and 996 (Xfinity).
All students must register to participate and receive their two student-service learning hours for advocacy.
