The Youth Leadership School is the Leadership Institute’s flagship school, nicknamed “the boot camp of politics.” This training provides students with effective techniques to organize and lead mass-based youth efforts for candidates and causes of your choice.
The Youth Leadership School has launched more successful political careers than any other Leadership Institute training program.

I used the knowledge and training from my experience with LI and other trainings I have been to in my campaign. I think what made the most positive impact for me was getting out and pounding the pavement, meeting people one on one. I am honored to have been giving this opportunity and I look forward to the challenges ahead.
