On all three levels (national, regional, state/district/territory), staff and members join bi-monthly to write letters in response to local and federal legislation. Our workshops are intended to educate our members on the first, and most easily accessible, form of engaging in the legislative process. Our workshops typically consist of a half an hour or more of discussion on each piece of legislation prior to our writing efforts.

All YLAC members and staff are welcome to join in our conferences focused on allowing youth to directly engage with their legislators. State-level conferences primarily focus on connecting youth with local government officials (educators, representatives, mayors, etc.) while regional conferences tend to focus on connecting youth with congressmen from states in the region. YLAC's national conferences engage youth across the country with a variety of speakers, ranging from advocacy leaders to congressmen, even governors and other state leaders.
