UPON MOTION of Commissioner Kiger, seconded by Vice Chairman Honeycutt and unanimously carried, the Board approved the requested changes as submitted by the Cabarrus County Youth Commission ad hoc committee. The approved Cabarrus County Youth Commission bylaws are as follows: Cabarrus County Youth Commission Background At the root of the Youth Commission is North Carolina 4-H. This organization holds a North Carolina 4-H Citizenship Focus in June each year. 4-H'ers (ages 14 -19) attend the three day even in Raleigh, participating in citizenship and government workshops designed to tackle youth apathy and highlight youth participating in civic affairs. The event culminates the 4-H'ers visiting legislators at the state capital building. A major component of the program is that 4-H'ers develop an Action Plan. This plan is to be something that engages the 4-H'er(s) in service that will improve the community, school systems, county, and/or state of each participant. In 2011, two youth from Cabarrus County attended the event and developed a plan to implement a Youth Commission in the county. The formulated objective of the Commission is "To live in a community that values the opinion of teens and empowers youth to be active citizens."
