The Arizona Students’ Association invites you to join our 43rd annual Youth Empowerment Summit(YES)! YES is an opportunity for students across the state of Arizona to come together in community to take action around the issues that students are organizing around on their college campuses. This Summit is also a great opportunity for students looking to get involved for the first time. The weekend will be full of growth opportunities, networking, education and most importantly direct advocacy to Arizona elected officials.
Saturday February 24, 2024 & Sunday February 25, 2024 will be held at Arizona State University Downtown (411 N Central Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85004). These two days will consist of panel discussions with ASA Alumni in various positions of leadership, elected officials as well as trainings by partner organizations working to directly impact concrete change in our communities.
On Monday February 26, 2024 ASA will bring students to the Arizona State Capitol to advocate for and against legislation directly impacting students across the state of Arizona. Throughout the day students will also have the opportunity to tour the state capitol and meet with elected officials of statewide offices.
Travel expenses, breakfast, lunch and hotel accommodations will be provided for all students joining the weekend from outside the Phoenix area. For an example of past Youth Empowerment Summits; the video below is news coverage of ASA’s 41st Advocacy Day 2022.
