Program Areas

Missouri YMCA Youth and Government (MOYAG) is a 3-day experiential learning program in which students serve as part of a model state government. YAG offers students the opportunity to learn about a wide variety of issues, develop critical thinking skills, and articulate their beliefs while engaging constructively with their peers from around Missouri.

Students attending the State Conferences of Missouri YMCA Youth and Government can choose between 3 program areas:

  • Legislative
  • Judicial
  • Media

YAG is led by a group of Presiding Officers, who are selected at the previous State Conference. These officers work throughout the year to plan and prepare the State Conferences.

All conference programming sessions take place at the Capitol Plaza Hotel and the Missouri State Capitol Building in Jefferson City.
