Meet Kelsey Santarossa, the Founder of YCC!
Kelsey was a youth council member in #LakeshoreON from 2008-2015 and is now serving as a Councillor in the same municipality! Elected at 25 years-old, she is one of the youngest elected Councillors in Ontario and a member of the Association of Municipalities of Ontario's Youth Advisory Council.
Kelsey has experience first hand as a youth councillor and seeing the difference that #youth can make in their #community
As a Councillor, she understands how important it is to have support systems in place for administrators that are working with youth to #MakeRealChange
