Pinecrest's Youth Advisory Council (YAC) was established in 2009.  The YACs purpose is to provide an opportunity for the youth of our community to participate and voice their concerns regarding local issues, learn about the workings of local government - including the different departments, participate in community service, to develop presentation skills including participation in Village Council meetings, and to learn leadership and life skills.

The YAC is comprised of 24 students that are selected annually.  The Youth Advisory Council (YAC) shall have the following responsibilities: 

  • Review issues affecting the village; 

  • Increase volunteerism and enhance civic education;

  • Promote leadership and advocacy for youth issues;

  • Develop and perform at least one community service project per academic year;  and

  • Share ideas, issues, concerns, and suggested improvements with the Village Council.
