     4. Milwaukee Succeeds Autonomous Youth Council & Youth Forward Presentation

Minutes note: Appearing: Maria Hamidu - Program Manager and Sebastian Fuentes -Community Engagement Manager The Autonomous Youth Council aims to recruit, train and position local youth within decision-making bodies. This includes boards and leadership tables across Milwaukee, as well as more informal structures. In these roles, youth will have the power to influence decisions that affect them and speak up for what they need. The Autonomous Youth Council launched with a 4-week in-person training academy in July of 2024, allowing youth the opportunity to develop and hone their talents. The content and structure of the training was shaped through youth and community feedback, creating a more responsive and engaging educational experience. The AYC placements provide year-long opportunities for youth to join key decision-making bodies across Milwaukee, including boards and advisory councils. By placing 2-5 council members at each organization - from Data You Can Use to Arts at Large - we’re elevating youth leadership and ensuring their voices shape critical decisions. These placements will empower our young leaders to make a meaningful impact in their community.
