Youth Congress
Every year the Rural Electric Cooperatives of Wisconsin and the UW-River Falls
College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Sciences sponsor students to the
Youth Leadership Congress, which is held on the UW-River Falls campus for three
days during the first week in June. This event is coordinated by the WECA
(electric) Division of the Wisconsin Federation of Cooperatives and designed by
and for teenagers.
While at YLC, students are active in workshops and seminar sessions. They also hold
current events debates, form a real working cooperative, and elect a seven-member
board of directors for the next year.
The purpose of the program is to provide a forum to teenagers to discuss the issues
that are important to them, learn about electric cooperatives, and sample life on a
college campus.
This year's congress will be held July 17-19, an application and tentative schedule is available
here.
Please contact our Member Services Director for more information.
