Government-in-Action Youth Tour

High school students can earn an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington, D.C., June 15–22, 2025. The Government-in-Action Youth Tour is a youth leadership program sponsored by Concho Valley EC and organized by Texas Electric Cooperatives and the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association. For more than 50 years, electric cooperatives across the nation have sent young adults to the nation’s capital for this action-packed trip.

Highlights of the trip include meeting congressional leaders, visiting national monuments, touring museums, and meeting other students from across the nation.

Eligible applicants must be a high school sophomore, junior or senior and a dependent of an active Concho Valley EC member whose primary residence is served by CVEC.
