Youth Empowerment - July 2, 2018

Submitted by youthbeat on Wed, 06/27/2018 - 2:16pm
In the spirit of Independence Day, we explore an organization run by youth for youth who are politically active known as the Junior State of America. Former JSA State Governor, Weston Lindner, talks with us about how high school students can be civically active and about the benefits that come with being involved in an organization like the JSA. We also take a look at youth voting trends, teaching professionalism to high schoolers in rural schools, and an opportunity for students to express environmental issues to the public through displaying art.
