CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — The Ross County Health District is recruiting Ross County teenagers to join a Youth Engagement Group that will advise the district on programs aimed at teen health, the district announced Monday in a statement.
Group members will share ideas about what teens need to handle stress and everyday life and will help the district improve real programs by saying what is and is not working, according to the announcement.
Each member will receive $20 for every meeting attended, provided on a Visa gift card, the district said. Spots in the group are limited.
Applications are open through Friday, Nov. 13, 2026, and are available online at bit.ly/YouthEngagementGroup.
Questions about the group can be directed to Sara Smith, the district’s health communications specialist, at 740-779-9652, extension 2208, according to the district.
