Mayor’s Youth Corps wants you

Weekend Tampa Mayor Jane Castor

Tampa teens wanting to give back to their community and looking for a glimpse into the workings of City Hall are invited to apply for seats on the Mayor’s Youth Corps. The Mayor’s Youth Corps is comprised of students in grades 9 - 11 who live in and/or attend a public or private high school within the Tampa city limits. Applications are now being accepted for one-year terms and will be accepted until October 22, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Members of the Youth Leadership Council review applications, conduct interviews, and make recommendations regarding acceptance into the program. Members learn about and engage with city government, meet with Mayor Castor, connect with peers, conduct community service projects, participate in state and national conferences, and run social media platforms. Teens also learn leadership and employability skills while serving in the program.
