The mission of BPA is to develop and empower student leaders to discover their passion and change the world by creating unmatched opportunities in learning, professional growth and service. Not only does BPA offer fabulous competitions, they also offer opportunities in the areas of service and leadership. BPA offers three qualifying competitions: Regions in January, State in March, and Nationals in May. There is also a leadership conference in Minneapolis in November.
