Youth Policy Summit Video Release Party!

By video release party, we mean virtual celebration! All the A-list celebs will be there...

We are so excited about the first ever YPS official video! It features clips from a presentation that 4 of our alumni did at the NCSSSMST Conference this fall in Austin, TX. They are incredibly well spoken, and do a great job of describing the YPS experience. We hope this video will be a nice snippet for alumni to remember their time at YPS and helpful for perspective students to get a better sense of the program. Share it on Facebook, like it on YouTube, watch it every day, and give major props to Avery, David, Elaine & Megan for making it happen!
