Ambassadors

Connect Ambassadors are the voice of teens in Spartanburg County. The perspectives and preferences they share help mold decisions related to mental and health services for local youth.

Speak for yourself and your peeps.

Each year, youth Ambassadors representing school districts across Spartanburg join the Connect team to attend monthly meetings and provide their insight into events, local services and more. Ambassadors help promote teen-friendly services in Spartanburg, develop activities and create issues-related content that matters to teens. Ambassadors must be residents and students in Spartanburg County.
