Foster City Youth Advisory Committee presents 2025 year‑end report; council accepts
Summary
The Foster City Youth Advisory Committee presented its 2025 accomplishments and goals for 2026, including volunteer events, leadership development and a sensory‑friendly Santa event; the council voted to receive and file the year‑end report.
The Foster City Youth Advisory Committee presented its 2025 year‑end report on March 2 and outlined goals for 2026, and the council voted to accept the presentation and receive the report.
Committee Chair Isha Misra and Vice Chair Britney Mutaleb told the board the committee ran leadership training, organized subcommittees to give members hands‑on experience, and partnered with city recreation staff on community events such as the Halloween festival and a sensory‑friendly Santa program for participants with special needs.
"Our first goal for 2025 was to continue to be leaders for teens in the community," Misra said, describing team‑building and outreach activities the committee completed. The report also highlighted a "stress buster" event held to help students during finals; committee members told council they measured success by how well the event integrated students with special needs and created an inclusive atmosphere, though exact attendance figures were not specified in the presentation.
Council members praised the committee's work and offered suggestions for future collaboration with the new community center and for intergenerational programming that would pair teens with seniors. By motion and voice vote the board accepted the report.
