Youth Council meets at Clark

December 10, 2025

On Saturday, December 6, members of the Massachusetts Youth Climate Council gathered at Clark University to listen deeply and tune into questions of what is taking place in our current moment and why, the implications of what is happening, and how we wish to conduct ourselves, given what we know.

The Council, first launched over two sessions in 2024 as part of CUHF’s Threshold Council series, is comprised of high school students across the state who are charged with advising the Office of Climate Innovation and Resilience on climate policy and actions to make communities more resilient.

Massachusetts Climate Chief Melissa Hoffer, a member of CUHF’s Core Team, launched the group. December’s Council was facilitated by CUHF National Conveners, Pat Benjamin and Lauren Faria.
