High School Summer Leadership Program

Uncover your leadership potential.

At the NSLC Leadership & Service program, give back to the community while exploring your strengths, practicing fundamental skills like goal setting and public speaking that will unlock your natural leadership abilities.

My experience was impactful and life-changing. It taught me to open up more and showed me how I can become a better leader in my community.
