The Marin Student Elections Ambassador Program (SEAP) held a Youth Town Hall on Sunday, April 28 at the Marin Civic Center. SEAP Steering Committee student liaisons Alysha Lee, Caroline Foster, and Jordan Harrosh planned the event, invited and briefed the elected officials, developed the promotional materials, recruited student volunteers, and ran the Town Hall.
The Town Hall program opened with a special recorded message from Dr. Shirley Weber, California Secretary of State, and Lynda Roberts, Marin County Registrar of Voters, welcomed the group. Panelists from all Marin County cities/towns responded to questions from students about issues ranging from how they became involved in politics to climate change to affordable housing to the best ways to serve in local government. There were approximately 75 attendees - more than double last year's inaugural town hall!
