The Ohio Senate has adopted a resolution authorizing the Ohio-West Virginia Youth Leadership Association to utilize the Ohio Senate Chamber and committee rooms for its Ohio Youth in Government Program from April 10-12, 2025. This initiative aims to provide students with a deeper understanding of government processes and the legislative system, enhancing their appreciation for civic engagement. The program is designed to prepare participants for active citizenship by equipping them with knowledge and experience that will be valuable throughout their lives.

The resolution highlights the importance of the Ohio-West Virginia Youth Leadership Association's efforts in fostering informed and responsible future citizens. By granting access to the Senate facilities, the program will offer students a realistic view of state government operations, thereby enriching their educational experience. The Senate members commend the participants as exemplary young citizens and direct the Clerk of the Senate to send a copy of the resolution to the association.
