The Board of Governance is the ultimate authority in the governance of the Youth Coalition. The Board is responsible for the overall strategy and direction of the organisation. This includes:

• Establishing guiding principles and policies including the strategic direction of the Coalition
• Delegating responsibility and authority to those who are responsible for enacting the principles and policies and monitor compliance
• Ensuring staff and the Board are held accountable for their performance

The management of day-to-day decisions are left up to the Director who is accountable to the Board in respect to these operational matters.

The Board is comprised of four officer bearers and eight ordinary members. The four officers are the Convenor, Co-Convenor, Treasurer and Secretary. The constitution of the organisation also specifies that there must be at least two young people on the Board.

Members of the Board are elected by the membership of the Youth Coalition at the AGM which is usually held in late November each year.
