In Youth & Government, high school students in 9th-12th grades model “Democracy in Action” through a year-long leadership program. This program builds confidence and gives students a voice to express and address issues facing their communities that are most important to them. During this mock legislative process, a group of students team up to write a bill, conduct research, lobby for votes, hold mock elections, and debate their bill on the Senate and Assembly floors at our State Capitol. Youth & Government is the only youth program allowed to use state legislative and judicial chambers. En Youth & Government, los estudiantes de preparatoria de los grados 9 -12 modelan “Democracia en Acción” a través de un programa anual de liderazgo. Durante este proceso legislativo simulado, un grupo de estudiantes escriben un acta, hacen búsquedas, requieren votos, simulan elecciones y debaten su acta en el Senado y la Asamblea en el Capitolio. Youth & Government es el único programa juvenil que se les permite usar cámaras legislativas y judiciales.
