Attorney General Mike DeWine
High School
Students Encouraged to Apply for Teen Ambassador Board
(COLUMBUS, Ohio)—Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine today announced that
his office is now accepting applications for its Teen Ambassador Board.
The Ohio Attorney General’s Teen Ambassador Board advises the office on
issues related to teens. Board members serve a one-year term during
which they convene twice in Columbus. They work in groups to propose
solutions to problems facing Ohioans and meet with the Attorney General
and other elected officials.
Ohio high school students who will be juniors or seniors during the
2016-2017 academic year are now eligible to apply. Applications are due
May 31, 2016.
“Participating in the Teen Ambassador Board gives Ohio students an
inside look at law and government,” Attorney General DeWine said.
“Participants will work with their peers to propose solutions to some
of the greatest challenges facing Ohioans. I encourage interested
students to apply.”
The Teen Ambassador Board includes high school juniors and seniors from
public, private, charter, and online schools in Ohio. During the
2015-2016 academic year, approximately 170 students joined the program.
Ideal candidates are motivated self-starters who are interested in law
and government.
A copy of the 2016-2017 Teen Ambassador Board application and
additional information can be found on the Ohio Attorney General’s website.
