Building bridges, creating change.
The Sitka Youth Leadership Committee has started up again for the school year! We are currently recruiting applicants from all three of Sitka's high schools. Applicants should be eager to promote equity and diversity across Sitka through education on healthy relationships, social media initiatives, and campaigns on power, privilege, and systems of oppression. SYLC meets weekly on Wednesdays from 6:15-7:45 via zoom, as well as once a month on the weekends for three hour workshops. For more information, visit
The Sitka Youth Leadership Committee (SYLC) is a
group of youth leaders based in Sitka, Alaska.
We are dedicated to building bridges and promoting
respect across cliques, schools, and communities.

SYLC is committed to promoting equity and diversity. We want to hear from you! We believe that by sharing vulnerable stories, not only can we highlight the diversity that Sitka has to offer, we can build more connections, empathy, and positive relationships among Sitkans. To participate, make a postcard to give the community a glimpse of your story/experience! Submissions may appear on SYLC social media and will remain anonymous.
