The Youth Leadership Conference (YLC) is aimed at students interested in advancing their leadership skills through an intense development program. Students will gain insight on leadership skills, barriers to communications and teamwork. These events also teach participants about life at senior military colleges and encourages students to look into applying for Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) scholarships.

Applications can be accepted at any time with or without the essay, but the essay must be received two weeks prior to the program start date.
Activities may include training on: the climbing wall, leadership reaction, Our Constitution & The Bill of Rights, Free Enterprise & Personal Finance.
