A summit by youth, for youth.This year’s summit invites participants to reflect on moments of resilience in our shared past and explore how they can inspire meaningful action.
This dynamic, youth-led event is designed to amplify the power of young people to learn, connect, and lead. Planned by youth for youth, the Summit creates a space for students from across the country to come together, build leadership skills, and explore how they can create meaningful change in their schools and communities.
The Youth Leadership Summit is created and led by NYLC’s Youth Advisory Council. Every session, activity, and project reflects youth voices, ensuring the event speaks directly to the issues and opportunities that matter most to students today.
Be part of a movement of young leaders who are shaping the future. Whether you’re just starting your leadership journey or already leading change, the Youth Leadership Summit is for you.
