Dear colleagues,

Do you work with passionate young leaders serving on youth councils or advisory boards? We invite you to share an exciting new opportunity from the National Youth Leadership Council (NYLC) designed just for them.

Youth Council Connection: A Day of Leadership, Learning, and Connection

📅 Date: August 6, 2025

🕚 Time: 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM CST

💻 Location: Online

This one-of-a-kind, youth-centered event is crafted to support and amplify the voices of young people in leadership roles. Through interactive workshops, peer networking, and engaging dialogue, participants will:

- Strengthen their leadership and advocacy skills

- Connect with youth from councils across the country

- Learn strategies for navigating decision-making spaces and elevating youth voice

NYLC’s Youth Council Connection aligns with our commitment to fostering authentic youth voice—ensuring young people are not only heard but empowered to lead.

If you know youth who would benefit from this experience, please share this opportunity widely. We also encourage you to support their participation and attend alongside them if appropriate.
