About the Webinar

How do local governments meaningfully engage the next generation of young leaders? Now more than ever, local governments are looking for creative ways to educate young people about civic issues and encourage them to be active and informed community members. From Youth Commissions to summer intensives, California’s local governments are utilizing a wide range of programming styles to support youth in their civic education pathways.
