For 20 years we have educated and engaged youth from all points of the state, from Barrow to Utqiagvik and communities large and small.
Our AYEA alums have gone on to be Arctic Ambassadors, school teachers, business leaders, community leaders and more. Each of them has taken the tools and inspiration from their time with AYEA to continue their stewardship of our resources from Alaska to all points of the globe.

For our 20 year anniversary, share your story of AYEA. How did your time with us effect your friendships, your view of your role in politics and your life as a whole. AYEA means a lot to us. What does it mean to you?
