Welcome to the Young Government Leaders – Atlanta Chapter! 

If you are interested in furthering your public service career through: professional development activities, networking opportunities, social events, seminars, and community involvement… then YGL Atlanta is for you!

The mission of Young Government Leaders Atlanta is “to educate, inspire, and transform future government leaders in the Atlanta area.”

Our vision is to serve as a premier organization that is sought out by government and public service agencies as a pool of talented, driven individuals.  The Chapter will maintain an environment that transforms employees into prized and promotable assets.  The Chapter will be a model for organizational management that is admired and emulated by other organizations.  

Stay connected, get involved and have fun as you prepare yourself for the challenges of public service.
