We're excited to share an exceptional opportunity for middle and high school students across Arizona! The Preserve America Youth Summit: Next Generation Stewards is coming to Flagstaff, June 1-4, 2026, and applications are now open.

The Arizona State Historic Preservation Office is launching the Heritage Preservation Youth Council (HPYC), a student-led initiative born from the Preserve America Youth Summit that empowers grades 8-12 students to become leaders in protecting Arizona's natural, historic, and cultural resources. Applications are now open through November 7 for motivated students interested in gaining leadership skills, hands-on advocacy experience, and meaningful civic engagement opportunities.
