Tickets are also available for $50 and $25 (No one will be turned away for lack of funds).

Currently, these three organizations are working to build a stronger presence of the progressive youth movement online, with a special focus on providing tools to: support leadership development; amplify our voice;, and help us build more synergy across our diverse work. Virtual tours of all three websites will be available at the reception - so you can find out more about how this collaborative will profoundly impact the youth progressive movement.
