Local Youth Community Engagement Program
APYD will partner with youth organizations in target communities to bring the online conference, OFFLINE, and increase community engagement on the conference topics.

media, webinars, livestreams and community activities to kick-off this
year's conference.
- Youth organizations outside the target communities
can join in the conference day through the online workshops and live
stream events.
- Community partners will bring together groups of young
people in their community to discuss youth issues and share best practices
from a youth perspective.
- A Youth Challenge(s) will be chosen by the APYDCON Core
Community's Youth Leaders.
- Youth Leaders will research and design a short workshop
on a national issue and how it impacts their community, youth and
young adults.
- APYD

partners will discuss and work on their challenge and share their ideas
and strategies in an online community discussion center and breakout
online discussions.

issues, ideas and strategies that were developed by community partners
across the country.
