Networking: Students who attended a state training or competed in an event were able to meet adults and peers interested in similar career fields.
- Grow leaders
Public Speaking: Over 5,000 students participated in regional/statewide speaking events such as prepared public speaking.
Teamwork: Over 3,000 students competed in a team-based activity at a state event, learning how to work with multiple individuals toward a common goal.
Positive Role Models: State officers spent 2,288 hours directly interacting with local students at schools and trainings.
- Build communities
Student Voice: 453 students represented their local programs as voting delegates during the organizations' state policy meetings.
Travel: State level activities offer an opportunity for students to travel throughout Nevada and expand their experiences and knowledge levels.
