MODEL GOVERNEMNT CONFERENCE
April 2, 2022
Suffolk Law School
Democracy must be learned by each generation.
Delegates from across the Commonwealth engage and support each other each year at our Conference held in person at the Massachusetts State House.
This year, due to complications with COVID, we have moved our Model Conference to Suffolk University Law School on Tremont Street in Boston.
During Conference, delegates will debate legislation that is written to strengthen our communities, hear testimony in fair and just trials, receive input from well researched lobbyists and stay informed with unbiased press updates. Each year, Youth & Government teens have made a positive impact in their schools, communities and, one day, even globally.

Y&G Nationals
“Through CONA I met an incredibly supportive community that inspired me to be myself and pursue opportunities I wouldn’t otherwise have. CONA helped me find peers who shared my interests, identities, and goals who ultimately helped me become the leader I am today. At first I was intimidated by the prestige of the national Conference, but my mentors were supportive and helped guide me...”
