This is an exciting opportunity for youth to step into shoes of the individuals who run our State Government! Indiana Youth and Government is a three-day conference in which students participate directly in a simulation of the democratic process. At this high school event, students will learn the legislative process; how to research and debate public issues; present and rank bills; as well as meet students from different schools and gain critical skills, like social skills, public speaking skills, leadership skills, and more!
