The British Columbia Youth Parliament’s 84th Parliament will be held in Victoria at the Provincial Legislative Chambers from December 27 to 31, 2012. The Youth Parliament is a province-wide non-partisan organization for young people ages 16 to 21. It teaches citizenship skills through participation in the December parliamentary session and in community service activities throughout the year. Youth Parliament is a one year commitment.
Local youth are invited to apply to sit as members of the Youth Parliament. Youth Parliament is non-partisan, and applicants need only be interested in learning more about the parliamentary process and in serving their community.
Soft copies of the application form, as well as a brochure and poster, are available from the Youth Parliament of BC Aumni Society website at www.bcyp.org/joinus.html.
All application forms must be received by October 23, 2012. Applicants will be notified whether they have been selected in early November.
