The YMCA of Greater Indianapolis has a 24-week program for high school students called the Youth Government Program. The program started Sept. 19 and costs $50. Registration is open until Oct. 21.
During this time students learn about social change and current political issues, allowing students a chance to grasp government concepts and get a better understanding of what is going on in the world around them.
The program is at two locations: the Hendricks Regional Health YMCA, 301 Satori Parkway in Avon, and the Avondale Meadows YMCA, 3908 Meadows Drive. The program is 5:30-7 p.m. on the first and third Monday of the month.
