Summary: Students attending the Alaska Youth for Environmental Action Civics and Conservation Summit discovered that being too young to vote doesn't leave you voiceless.
This feature showcases a cool program that gives Alaskan teenagers the opportunity to see how state government works. It could benefit from more student perspectives, and maybe an interview from a legislator about his or her opinion of the program. But this piece has a clear narrative flow and does a good job showing diverse aspects of the summit. It seems like a great way for students to really learn first-hand how state government works.
