June 2020 Web Series

Due to COVID-19, the National Teen Leadership Program’s 2020 leadership camp has been cancelled.

For 27 years in a row, the National Teen Leadership Program has held at least one camp every summer. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the President of California State University, Sacramento has officially announced that the University will be cancelling all in-person summer events. With this news, NTLP no longer has a viable option to host camp and has made the difficult decision to cancel our 2020 leadership camp originally hosted on their campus. The safety of our teens, volunteer staff, and our community is of upmost importance. As leaders in creating positive environments that empower, inspire and educate all teens, we want to lead by example and keep our community safe. We hope to see everyone back in Sacramento in summer 2021!

My experience at NTLP was amazing. I met people who came from all over the world and the program overall was very diverse. In this program I heard people give very motivational speeches that made me analyze myself as a person and we had many workshops that allowed us to see how diverse we were all from each other. This program wasn’t only serious topics and they included many fun activities such as a hymnodist show, obstacle course group games and a dance that allowed everyone to come out of their comfort zones. All in all this was an unforgettable experience. – Connie Funded Through Wishbone, 2017

We believe in motivating and inspiring youth to be great role models and civic leaders, who want to and will make a positive difference in this world. We create amazing positive environments, opportunities, and connections so the teens can discover the leader within themselves.
We do this by striving to support social and emotional learning and skills, building strong, good character, and
equipping teens with the tools and skills to start their leadership journey.
