Alexis De La Rosa '15 Appointed to the Philadelphia Millennial Advisory Committee

Alexis De La Rosa '15, an Assistant Resident Director at the University of Pennsylvania PENNCAP, has been appointed to the inaugural Philadelphia Millennial Advisory Committee. The committee is expected to advise the City on policies, programs, and actions affecting millennials, help develop initiatives focused on attracting and keeping millennial residents, connect this generation to engagement opportunities with the larger community, and create a mentorship model to help engage those new or returning to citizenship.

“I want to urge the members of this committee, as well as the 400 millennials that applied to continue to take their passion and energy to causes that make Philadelphia a better place for all of us,” Mayor Jim Kenney said in a statement. “We need the energy and fresh ideas of millennials to help us tackle the problems that we’ve faced for generations.”
