State Director’s
Conference
The YMCA Youth Conference on
National Affairs was started in 1968 as a follow-up to the outstanding state
Youth in Government programs conducted by the YMCA throughout the US. The
success of the conference is directly attributed to the leadership of many YMCA
Professionals and Laymen but primarily to the dedication of the Youth
involved. Last year, young people from thirty-three states and the
District of Columbia participated in the Conference.
The objectives of the program are:
1. To gain an awareness of National concerns and issues.
2. To increase understanding of Federal Government and its relation to State, National and International matters.
3. To have and use a means for communicating concerns about National Affairs to appropriate persons and groups at Federal Government
levels.
4. To develop increased understanding of needs, responsibilities and opportunities.
5. To work creatively together with young adults and adults.
6. To help youth and adults to better understand and strengthen their values for living through the
Christian objectives of the YMCA.
