The Orange County Youth Council (OCYC) includes students from across Orange County who are part of the FNL chapter at their high school or are members of the statewide FNL California Youth Council. These students serve as an advisory group to provide guidance and a youth voice for countywide substance use prevention and mental health promotion. In addition, the OCYC takes an active role in conducting related projects and activities to support prevention efforts throughout Orange County.

OCYC meetings are held virtually and project updates are shared on the OCFNLP Instagram and Facebook pages.

The opportunity to apply for the 2020-2021 OCYC has closed. Announcements will be made on September 30, 2020. OCYC members will serve from October 1, 2020 – June 30, 2021.
