Save the Date for the Conference of Young Alaskans III |
|
The 2012 Conference of Young Alaskans will be held in Juneau January 4-7. Fifty-five representatives from all over the state will convene to discuss past, current and future challenges facing all Alaskans.
The selected delegates will represent the voice of Alaska's next generation of leaders, and the gathering will demonstrate the potential and possibility of Alaskans putting aside their differences to work together for the common good. As a delegate you could contribute to the discussion of issues specific to Alaskans, the result of which will be a final report to the public.
Applications to be one of 55 delegates will be available in early fall 2011 on Institute of the North's Web site. For more information contact Carolyn Kinneen .
