District Student Voice Committee (DSVC)

The District Student Voice Committee (DSVC) is a leadership team dedicated to elevating student voice across Chicago Public Schools. DSVC is a collective of 12 CPS students from different high schools and members of their school’s Student Voice Committee (SVC). DSVC members learn how social issues impact their schools and in turn are passionate advocates for their fellow students. They work with students, teachers, administrators, and central office staff to help build inclusive partnerships between youth and adults, ensuring that students’ needs and perspectives impact the District’s priorities.
