Advancing Leaders For Democracy
By connecting young adults to high-quality civic education and training, our Young Leaders programs remove barriers to leadership in service of a stronger democracy.

SUMMER INSTITUTE

Over the course of the summer, participants meet weekly for virtual sessions that feature a wide variety of expert guest speakers and cover various topics related to democracy and leadership.

CIVIC ACTION PROGRAM
The Young Leaders Civic Action Program (YLCAP) is meant for young changemakers who use organizing practices to build their leadership skills and strengthen democracy in their communities.
YLCAP is open to teams with at least one member who has completed a Democracy House program, building upon the skills and experiences of those programs to deepen participants’ leadership and organizing skills in service of a stronger democracy.
