The purpose of the Youth Council is to represent the youth of Trumbull, Bridgeport, Fairfield, Stratford, Easton, Monroe and to enhance youth involvement throughout the Red Cross organization, nationally and internationally. With the spirit and energy of a team on a mission, the Youth Council sets an example for all Red Crossers who are eager to uncap the potential of America's youth and to capitalize on their ability to grow the organization.

We do lots of projects to help the community.
Come and join us at the meetings.

Meetings: Take place on the first Tuesday of every month. (Days of the meeting may change)
