The Bellevue Youth Link board was formed in 1991 to promote diversity, unity and equity for high school youth in Bellevue, representing the youth voice to leadership in the community. The board is a catalyst for responding to the interests and concerns of young people by engaging the entire community.
The board is currently addressing youth mental health, food, housing, social services, environmental sustainability, diversity, equity and inclusion.
The City of Bellevue values diversity and encourages youth and adults to apply online.
