Annual Events
Youth Capitol Experience
Every odd-numbered year, youth/students get a front row seat to the Montana legislative session in Helena. They witness how the state legislature operates, how public testimony is given, and how bills are voted on and passed. This unique experience offers the opportunity to engage directly with the state government and understand how policy affects their communities.
Yearly Summer Youth Camp
This two-week camp provides students with a first-hand experience of college and dorm life while going through Expanding Horizon’s four programs.
Yearly Youth Conference
This three-day conference includes networking opportunities, motivational speakers, cultural activities, and hands-on learning experiences.
