Attorney General Mike DeWine
Local teen named to Teen Ambassador Board
2017-18
(COLUMBUS, Ohio)—Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine today announced his
office’s 2017-2018 Teen Ambassador Board, which includes more than 240
Ohio high school students representing more than 50 counties and over
140 schools throughout the state. Local teen, Meridith Cook, Franklin
Monroe High School, is among the Board members.
A list of the 2017-2018 Teen Ambassador Board members is available on
the Ohio Attorney General’s website and attached below.
“We look forward to working with these students and hearing their
ideas,” Attorney General DeWine said. “Teen Ambassador Board members
will have the opportunity to meet with government officials, work with
other high school students from across the state, and provide insight
on key initiatives and issues facing Ohio today.”
The mission of the Teen Ambassador Board is to provide Ohio’s future
leaders with an inside look at Ohio law and government. The board is
open to high school juniors and seniors from public, private, home,
charter, and online schools located in Ohio.
Board members serve a one-year term and convene twice in Columbus. They
advise the Attorney General’s Office on issues relating to teens, and
they work with their peers to develop solutions. They also attend
presentations, hear from elected officials, interact with assistant
attorneys general, and have the opportunity to participate in events
around the state. For example, this past May, Teen Ambassador Board
members presented at the Attorney General's Two Days in May Conference
on Victim Assistance.
This year’s Teen Ambassador Board kick-off meeting will be held in
early August and students will serve through March 2018.
More information about the Ohio Attorney General’s Teen Ambassador
Board is available on the Attorney General’s website.
