NYSYD Convention Hosted By The Bronx Young Democrats

Goal thermometer

In the summer of 2015, BYD launched an exploratory committee to bring the statewide Young Democrats Convention to the great Borough of The Bronx! I am pleased to inform you that through advocacy from the Executive Board, support from the Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr and Chairman Marcos Crespo of the Bronx Democratic County Committee, and assistance from Marriott International, we were successful in our bid!

From May 20-22, 2016, BYD will draw over 150 young leaders from across New York State to host the New York State Young Democrats Convention. The Bronx Young Democrats, which engages Bronxites ages 16-36, holds principles such as leadership, community involvement and civic engagement at its base and believes that promoting those ideals are both ideologically aligned and central to the mission of the overall Democratic Party.

The Bronx is undergoing resurgence in not only dynamic leadership but also economic development. That is why we wish to highlight all the progress the Bronx is seeing currently as reflective of our political and community partner leadership.
