Help us teach democracy to the next generation

For the first time - Illinois Youth & Government is launching an alumni association to help all our former participants keep up with the fun years after graduation! Receive the best of each year's bills, Observer newspapers, and Judicial Review straight to your inbox and help us continue to operate a high-quality program annually.

The association will provide exclusive access to alumni events, discounts for other fundraising events, and a more direct connection to the Annual Assembly from the comfort of home!

This program currently runs at a $150 loss per student as we have strived to keep prices low to encourage opportunities for students across the state. We rely on donations to fill that gap and support need-based scholarships to ensure that no student is turned away.

Please consider becoming a patron today to hear about your impact directly from our students and fill the gap in our subsidized program pricing!
