Youth Policy Summit is a unique preparatory experience that seeks to involve a diverse group of motivated high school students. YPS does not require specific academic qualifications or skill levels, and seeks to involve students with a variety of interests and experiences.

Eligible YPS participants are:

• high school students who will be rising juniors or seniors in summer 2012

• motivated to learn and make a difference

• able to commit to all Summit requirements, including pre-Summit research, participation in all Summit activities, and program follow-up

If you believe you are right for YPS but have some questions about age requirements or other factors, please don't hesitate to contact us to learn more. We value the diversity, creativity and uniqueness of each and every Summit group, and encourage all who are interested to apply.
