In FY 2020-2021, the commission developed a Public Service Announcement regarding the dangers of teen vaping that aired on all three local television news stations throughout the summer. For FY 2021-2022, the Youth Commission discussed and voted to plan an in-person event that would provide local K-8 students resources for their educational readiness as they return to the classroom on a full-time basis after state and local COVI D-19 safety restrictions were lifted. On June 4, 2022, the Youth Commission, in collaboration with the Assistance League Bakersfield held a donation drive to help provide clothing, school supplies, and hygiene supplies to local students in preparation for the 2022-2023 school year. Three 6-foot clothing racks were filled with clothing and several hygiene items were donated by the community. Mayor Goh, City staff, and several Assistance League volunteers were in attendance; and both KGET 17, and KERO 23 provided event media coverage.
