Review for Junior State of America, Oakland, CA, USA
Back when I was a sophomore in high school, many of my classmates decided that drinking alcohol was the only thing they wanted to do on weekends. In addition to learning about politics and public speaking, the Junior State introduced me to dozens of potential friends who were interested in so much more than getting wasted. High Schools can be very limiting environments, and allowing students to mingle with a larger group of people, for an intelligent purpose, can make a huge difference to anyone who's struggling with social issues. I wasn't the only one from my school who benefited from JSA's activities.
