YOUNG PROFESSIONALS TAKE

The 2024 NPA Legislative Conference kicked off with a bang on night one, hosting a special dinner for young professionals (YPs) under 40. This energetic gathering, sponsored by GIA, brought together twenty new and returning attendees. The dinner provided a dedicated space to build relationships, swap stories and best practices, and gain confidence ahead of their meetings with lawmakers.

With a strong network and a sense of empowerment, these young professionals were ready to make their mark on Capitol Hill and beyond.

In the lead up to the Legislative Conference, young professionals also participated in a special “What To Expect” webinar hosted by the NPA Government Relations Committee. The webinar gave those interested in attending the conference a chance to learn strategies, ask questions, and feel better prepared for the visit to Capitol Hill.

These dedicated events ensure young professionals feel supported and equipped to make their voices heard.

Special thanks to GIA for helping empower the next generation of pawn industry advocates.
