What if the young people in your community became your utility's biggest advocates?
We know youth engagement can feel like a "nice-to-have" rather than a strategic priority. But forward-thinking utilities are discovering that early energy education creates lasting community relationships, builds future workforce pipelines, and transforms how families think about their public power provider.
That's why APPA is partnering with Monster Detective Collective to bring you a webinar that goes beyond feel-good activities to strategic youth engagement.
Learn from fellow utility, Taunton Municipal Lighting Plant (TMLP) and the Monster Detective Collective team as they share their expertise in successfully streamlining their engagement approach while improving community response.
What You'll Discover:
-
Strategic benefits beyond community relations: workforce development, household influence, and advocacy building
-
Real-world case study from an APPA member utility that transformed their youth engagement approach
-
Proven implementation framework with timelines, partnerships, and logistics that work
-
Content strategies that balance education with engagement across different age groups
