The commission has built a survey on youth mental health and wellness needs and plans to review it and figure out how to get residents — especially young people — to fill it out. The results will shape what the commission focuses on.

Survey results show what the community wants at the PERA building: health and wellness classes, arts and crafts, sports and recreation, plus features like an arcade, study rooms, and a community commercial kitchen for aspiring food businesses.

Youth Advisory Commission - Sep 21, 2026

Commissioners told county officials the library is essentially the only free place teens can gather in Page, and the high school has just one counselor for all grades, with waits that can stretch to two weeks. Transportation, walkability and tourist-oriented pricing compound the problem.
