2024 State Officer Summit

A five-day advocacy training that is open to all state officers. Training will focus on serving as an advocate for agriculture and FFA, as well as developing clear and consistent messages related to agriculture and FFA.

The 2024 State Officer Summit is scheduled for July 22-26, 2024, in Washington, D.C. This year, we invite all state officers to attend the entire conference, as delegate activities are integrated into the summit. This integration includes sessions specific to leadership delegates and non-leadership delegates. Non-leadership delegates will have free time during leadership delegate committee work, and legislative visits remain a vital piece of the State Officer Summit experience.

2024 student registration fees are $450 per student for the entire experience. State staff registration fees are $775 for dual occupancy and $1,075 for single occupancy. The fees include four nights of lodging beginning Monday, July 22, 2024.
