Are you interested in how our government works? Are you curious about what our state leaders do to better our education system and community?
BranchOut! is honored to have the opportunity to meet with State Auditor Diana DiZoglio, the chief accountability officer for state government in Massachusetts. Diana's role is to improve government accountability and transparency by conducting audits, studying fraud and financial challenges, and creating appropriate solutions. With such an important role, Diana has to demonstrate exceptional leadership and decision-making skills.

This is also a great opportunity to voice your concerns and ask questions that you care about. On August 6th, 1:30 PM EST, BranchOut! is counting on you to join a team of students to meet with MA State Auditor Diana DiZoglio in the Massachusetts State House.

This is not the first time BranchOut! is providing opportunities for our students to meet with state leaders. For example, students were invited to attend the UCA conference in June, where they got to meet with Senators Jon Tester and Dick Durbin at the Capitol Senate Office Building. Ethan Gao, a BranchOut! student leader shares, “The 2024 UCA Convention was an eye-opening experience for me in many regards. It provided me with unmatched insight into the struggles the Asian American community faces, and the many speakers who addressed and shared their personal experiences with discrimination were truly an inspiration for the next generation of Asian American leaders.” BranchOut! was recognized as an outstanding youth service organization both at the UCA 2024 and 2022.
BranchOut! students also had first hand experience welcoming state delegate and other government officials to our events.
Join us on August 6! We hope to see you there!
