Product Description:

University of South Dakota LEND believes that in order to advance policy change, one must not only know the system and how it works, but to also get to know those who influence decisions and make policy. For the past eighteen years South Dakota LEND trainees have had an intense twenty-four hour seminar into South Dakota state government connecting the trainees with the people who make thing happen in the branches of government. The seminar meets at the State Capitol during legislative session and in 2018 the trainees met a wide variety of those in the policy arena.
