Students Interested in Government - NC Youth Leadership Assembly 2020 Applications
50th Annual Youth Legislative Assembly - See attached flyer
If you know a high school student with an interest in government,
please share this information with them.
The North Carolina Youth Legislative Assembly (YLA) is a state program that continues to shape young leaders and provide them with a hands-on approach to government.
The YLA program replicates a legislative atmosphere of geographic diversity similar to our legislature. In doing so, the YLA program builds, encourages, and strengthens character traits that equip students to take leadership roles in civic activities in their communities.
In April 2020, approximately 200 North Carolina high school students will convene at the NC General Assembly for YLA.
Applications for the Youth Legislative Assembly are now online and can be found at https://www.ncleg.gov/YLA.
If you have questions regarding the YLA program, please contact Erica Gallion, YLA Program Coordinator, at erica.gallion@ncleg.net or (919) 301-1372.
