The NCLR Líderes Summit enhances young people’s experience at the NCLR Annual Conference by providing an exciting and challenging leadership experience.
The Líderes Summit takes place within the NCLR Annual Conference, and it brings together more than 400 students, activists, and young Latino leaders (ages 14-25) from all over the country. Participants develop leadership and teamwork skills, discuss community involvement and empowerment, and learn about Latino community issues, while also participating in the overall NCLR Annual Conference. Professionals who work with youth – counselors, advisors, and program managers – are also encouraged to attend the Summit. The Líderes Summit is a conference of the Líderes Initiative, a national program designed to increase the number, capacity, and influence of young Latino leaders in the United States.
The NCLR Annual Conference is the largest annual gathering of its kind in the Latino community, serving as the meeting ground for over 23,000 participants, including community organization leaders and activists, elected officials, members of the corporate and academic communities, senior citizens, and youth. The Conference features more than 50 substantive workshops, nationally recognized keynote speakers, four nights of headline entertainment, and Latino Expo USA – a consumer Expo featuring more than 300 exhibitors. |
