In talking to the region’s local government officials - specifically, the City of Roanoke, Montgomery County and the Town of Blacksburg - all have mentioned that their citizen committees are lacking young adults. They say that there are just not enough interested citizens willing to serve on boards that help shape and mold the future of local government entities.
In conversations I have had with young adults, some are interested, but they do not know where to go, what’s available, and no one has asked.
Therefore, I am asking all young adults, and all adults alike, if you are interested in serving on a local government committee, then let me know. I will get your name to the appropriate person. Local government needs your service now for the future.
