Advisory Commission on Youth
General Purpose The Loudoun County Advisory Commission on Youth (ACOY) works in conjunction with the Loudoun Youth Initiative (LYI) to foster the programs and services necessary for the wholesome development of the youth in Loudoun County. ACOY works to reduce incidents resulting from high-risk adolescent behaviors by promoting youth leadership and healthy lifestyles through:
| 
| - Strengthening community and family bonds;
- Establishing a community-responsive youth policy;
- Creating a protective environment for our young people; and
- Increasing the number of positive activities available to Loudoun youth.
Members The ACOY consists of nine representatives appointed by the Board of Supervisors, three youth representatives from the Youth Advisory Council, as well as three community representatives. Liaisons from local government agencies and the public schools also participate. A list of adult members, community representatives and liaisons can be found at www.loudounteens.org.
