TYP ENGAGE Young Professionals Summit | Political Advocacy

TYP ENGAGE is a platform for thought leadership and facilitated discussion that brings together influential and passionate young professionals throughout Greater Tucson. This fall, we’re focusing on political advocacy, which is where TYP asserts the will of its members on key issues, by answering three key questions:

• How can I advocate for issues that are important to me?
• What can TYP do as an organization to advocate on my behalf?
• What are the ways TYP is civically engaged?

Join us for a summit designed to help you stay informed and maintain your mental well-being during this and future election seasons. Hear from TYP Members, Community Leaders, and Local Elected Officials on engaging effectively in the political process, understanding what's on the ballot, and critically consuming media coverage. This event offers practical advice, insightful discussions, and networking opportunities for anyone looking to navigate the complexities of election season with clarity and calm. Don't miss this chance to equip yourself with the tools needed for mindful and informed political participation.
