By Rachel Johnson, co-coordinator of NYC 2026
Want to help give an amazing experience to youth today? Want to experience the organizational side of National Youth Conference (NYC)? Do you want to help facilitate an unforgettable experience for youth at NYC? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you may want to be a youthworker at NYC 2026! Applications close on Nov. 2, so be sure to apply soon!
Youthworkers help to carry out the programing, facilitate the organization, and take care of the behind-the-scenes details during NYC 2026. Serving as a youthworker is a serious task, and is not a task for those who want to experience NYC in the same way they did as a youth. Committed, focused, and enthusiastic people are wanted to serve as youthworkers next summer. Are you up for the task or know someone who would be?
Find the application at https://forms.gle/g34gM5ujmdr8kWFaA until Nov. 2. NYC 2026 will take place July 18-23, 2026, at the YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park, Colo.
