Student Leadership Council
Congressman Mike Thompson and Assembly Majority Leader Cecilia Aguiar-Curry invite high school students to join their Student Leadership Council. The Student Leadership Council is an exciting program that allows local students to work directly with their elected officials and staff to develop leadership skills, learn how government works, and engage with our community. The Council is open to all high school students who live in California's Fourth Congressional District or California's Fourth Assembly District.
