 "YIG has affected my life in so many positive ways, it has taught me how to be a leader, a good public speaker and a good listener. I have made many good friends both at the YIG conference in Lansing and the CONA conference in North Carolina. I have become a better person through YIG and I know that the opportunities I have had throughYIG would not have been possible if it weren't for the generous donations of our sponsors." Trent Swank

"Over the years, Youth in Government has proved to be an excellent learning opportunity for its participants. One of the best ways to learn a skill is through first-hand experience, and Youth in Government provides just that. To walk through the hallowed halls of our beautiful State Capitol and to sit in the house and Senate Chambers and debate legislation you have created will, I’m sure, prove to be a memorable experience."
Jennifer Granholm, Michigan Governor
