Fort Bend County, TX – Fort Bend County Judge KP George launched the Fort Bend Youth Leadership Council to bring passionate and driven young people together to help shape their futures. This youth led group will work with a team of mentors to strategize, organize, and mobilize for policy change and reform on issues they deem important. The team of mentors, composed of elected officials, faith leaders, and community leaders, will provide guidance and resources to support the initiatives that come out of the Fort Bend Youth Leadership Council.
“I am constantly amazed by the young people in our communities. They are the future of our County, State, & Country, which is why we need their help to fight for the issues they care about,” said County Judge KP George. “The Fort Bend Youth Leadership Council will strategize, organize, and advocate for true policy change on the issues they identify as a priority with support from a team of mentors.”
