Fellow Young Democrat,

In less than two weeks, we'll be hosting the largest gathering for politically-minded young Hoosiers of the year, and we hope you'll be there! At our annual convention, we will gather as members of IYD and renew our pledge to increase engagement amongst young voters and elect more young Democrats to office. We will have training sessions to prepare us to lead in our own communities across the state and hear from political leaders, game-changers, and the folks doing the work to make our country a better place. We'll have special guests from across the country and we'll elect our officers for the 2021-23 term. We can't wait, and we hope you're as excited as we are!

In order to register, you must be a dues-paying member of IYD, so
c ([link removed]) lick here ([link removed]) if you haven't paid your annual dues yet! If you haven't had the chance, be sure to also join one of our constituency caucuses ([link removed]) before the convention!

We will not have a monthly meeting tonight but instead will be meeting next month on July 21, 2021
