AZA & BBG INTERNATIONAL AUGUST EXECUTIVES CONFERENCE
August Execs is BBYO’s annual gathering of the highest-elected teen leadership (Teen Delegates) from every community across our Movement. During the conference, Alephs and BBGs come together to train on skills and strategies to finalize plans for the upcoming year. The conference will be filled with unique workshops, awesome programs, special events, and it will feature an International Business meeting.
Welcome to AZA & BBG International August Executives Conference!
This year's conference will take place from Thursday, August 14 - Sunday, August 17 in Fairfax, Virginia. August Execs will serve as the in-person kickoff to BBYO’s 101st Programming Year. As BBYO’s core leadership, we have the privilege of focusing on how to lead our communities, strengthen the impact of chapter and community programming, celebrate our chapters, and ensure that as many Jewish teens as possible have an opportunity to experience BBYO in all 725 of our chapters worldwide.
The registration form below for Teen Delegates requires payment and travel information, and it's due on Thursday, June 12th.
The cost for the conference is $450USD + flights.
If you have questions, email azabbg@bbyo.org.
There are three key steps for all delegates to complete before they are fully ready for August Execs.
Step 1: All Delegates must register using the links above.
Step 2: Schedule a meeting with all your Staff and Teen Delegates to work through your August Execs Prep Agenda.
We recommend doing this once in May/June and then again right before you leave in August!
Step 3: Sign up for the sessions and experiences you want to attend in early August.
The 101st Grand and 81st International Boards and the August Execs Planning Team are hard at work bringing you all the tools and strategies you need to make this year the best one yet for AZA & BBG. Each day will be filled with group experiences, small group training, time to network, and of course, planning time for your communities.

Here is the travel information for all confirmed August Execs delegates. You will submit your travel information upon registration. If you have any questions, please let us know.
The Executive Body, which consists of all council, regional, and country presidents, meets in-person twice a year and virtually throughout the year to vote on legislation from you and your peers to move us forward. We update the constitution, vote on our Movement Priorities, commit AZA and BBG to tackling big issues, introduce new campaigns and initiatives, and celebrate major achievements.
One of the most beautiful parts of AZA and BBG is the ability for any member to have a voice in what they'd like to see for our Movement.
