YMCA Youth in Government
Every year, students across Minnesota gather at Youth in Government (YIG) to understand, discuss and debate the important issues facing their communities, experience first-hand how government works, and use their voice to advocate for issues that are important to them and their community. YIG is an experience like none other – a fun and immersive four days where students find a place to belong and leave inspired to take action that transforms our world into a better, more just place.
