Youth & Government

Youth & Government

Youth & Government is a model legislature and court program for high school students that offers insight into government processes and knowledge to solve community problems by utilizing democratic processes. By stepping into roles of judges, lawyers, or Youth Governors, participants research, write, and debate to pass their own bills in an attempt to resolve real issues.

The program includes trips to Camp Roberts and Sacramento, collaborating with over 1,800 students across the state to experience the legislative world and meet California senators, assembly members, and judges.
