Youth and Government: Empowering the Next Generation of Leaders

The YMCA proudly empowers the next generation of leaders through its Youth and Government program. This unique initiative provides teens with a hands-on experience in the legislative process, allowing them to learn about Government, hone their public speaking and advocacy skills, and gain a deeper understanding of the issues that impact their communities.  

This month, several of our Youth and Government participants will head to the state capital to present their bills and participate in the legislative process from May 8 to 12.
