Secretary of the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP), Randy Romanski, recently named DAHS student Samuel Mell to the 2023-2024 Wisconsin Agriculture Youth Council. The Wisconsin Agriculture Youth Council is comprised of distinguished students from across the state.
DATCP created the Council in 2020 as an effort to encourage young people to engage with state government and increase
their awareness of how the state interacts with Wisconsin's agriculture industry. Over the next year, DATCP staff will work
with Council members to highlight agricultural-related career opportunities, share information about state resources,
provide insight into policy development, and encourage networking across the industry.
As a member of the Council, students will participate in nine monthly 90-minute virtual sessions and one final virtual event, planned for May 2024. For each session, students will be expected to prepare a question for the presenter, actively participate in discussion, and complete a follow-up survey. Members will rotate in and out of leadership roles for each session. As part of their term,
they will also complete a final reflection about their experience.
Congratulations, Sam!
