On April 25, 2025 middle and high school students will partake in DYA's annual Youth Month event- Island Leadership Day. For one day, participants will be youth counterparts to Government of Guam leaders in Adelup, the Legislature, the Judiciary, and Mayor's Offices. This experience will provide our island’s future workforce with a glimpse of the day-to-day operations and skill sets required for a high-functioning and responsive government.
Registration forms have been provided to school administrators; each school can register up to five students for Island Leadership Day. The only exception are schools with combined “all through” grade levels. Interested students must coordinate with their school administration to submit their registration forms to DYA by 5:00 p.m. on April 4, 2025.
DYA promotes Youth Month every April by hosting youth empowerment activities such as the Oratorical Contest and Island Leadership Day. DYA conducts the Oratorical Contest to decide who will be awarded the most coveted role of Youth Governor and Youth Lieutenant Governor during Island Leadership Day.
