NCLR Líderes Summit

July 7-11, 2006Los Angeles, California

The Líderes Summit is the youth leadership

development component of the National Council

of La Raza (NCLR) Annual Conference. The

Summit brings together more than 300 students,

youth leaders, and young activists from student

organizations and youth programs throughout the

country that are part of NCLR’s Líderes Network.

Participants, ages 14-25, develop leadership and

teamwork skills, share experiences, explore ideas

for community involvement and empowerment,

and discuss issues that face the Latino community,

all while taking advantage of the networking

and resources of the NCLR Annual Conference.

Professionals who work with youth – counselors,

advisors, program managers – are also encouraged

to attend the program.

Program OverviewThe Summit begins Friday, July 7 with a Community

Service Project working with local NCLR Affiliates.

The Summit then continues with youth-led

workshops, guest speakers, meals, and a youth

“mixer.” Once the main Conference begins on

Saturday, the Líderes Summit includes all general

conference events, ending Tuesday, July 11, and

adds additional Summit-specific activities. Summit

activities include the Líderes Contest, which

promotes networking and teamwork; a special

Youth Pavilion at Latino Expo USA, featuring a

cluster of youth-focused exhibits; and a Líderes

Youth town hall session that provides a spotlight

on youth concerns and views for the broader

conference audience.
