Join youth & Government  (2023-24 Information)

Join as a participant, advisor, volunteer, Friend of YMCA Youth & Government, or supporter.  We are grateful for a generous grant from the Mission Square Foundation and the Pacific Power Foundation supporting the program and providing scholarship funds this year for those needing financial assistance.

Registration fee for Delegates, Lobbyists, and Press Corps is $280.00 for the 2023-24 program year, and will include program and conference costs including 2 night's hotel lodging, daily breakfast, two dinners, program/location expenses, and YAG souvenir item and other program supplies. You must pay the full amount even if your school will not permit overnight stays - the fee was determined to spread the cost of the entire program across all registrants. Please contact the state director if you need financial assistance and did not request it at registration. 

What if I need to cancel? If you drop before participating, there will be no refund of fees already paid.  If you received a scholarship for financial assistance and have not paid the remaining balance due, you will not have to pay the balance. 

The registration deadline is: December 15th. All fees must be paid by: December 31st.
