Eshoo Looking for Students to Join Advisory Board

Congresswoman Anna Eshoo is looking for high school students to apply to serve on the 14th Congressional District Student Advisory Board in Santa Cruz County. Scotts Valley is in Eshoo’s 14th District.

Founded by Eshoo in 1993, the Boards have researched public policy issues and made recommendations for federal legislation on a wide range of issues, including campaign finance and election reforms, education and gun control. 

“Every voice matters –that’s why I formed the Student Advisory Boards when I first took office,” Eshoo said. “Each year, the Board participants make policy recommendations on Congressional issues. As the future leaders of our country, students have the opportunity to take an active role in public policy and have their voices heard. I encourage high school students in California’s 14th Congressional District to apply to serve on one of the Boards.”

Students on the Board meet twice a month for most of the school year and present their policy recommendations to Eshoo in May. The Student Advisory Board is open to high school students in the 14th Congressional District. Students are invited to apply by Friday, Oct. 21st.

For more information, students can call Eshoo’s office at 831-335-2020 or download the application at her website.
