Youth Programs

Students Inside Albany

This Conference is an intensive four-day training experience held in the spring and is designed to immerse students in the process by which public policy is proposed, enacted and changed in the New York State and educate them as to how they can influence and affect this process. Albany insiders discuss the operations of New York State government and how policy is shaped and enacted. Students develop knowledge of the disparate forces that influence policy development. Additionally, students are afforded the opportunity to observe Assembly and Senate sessions and to shadow both their Assembly members and Senators.
