LeadAmerica is one of our nation's most respected youth leadership organizations with an unwavering commitment to quality and excellence in our academic offerings. Mission is to ‘inspire and empower our young people to achieve their full potential and instill in them a sense of purpose, integrity, self confidence, and personal responsibility.' This is achieved through engaging students (high school for most programs and middle school for a few) in conferences that combine challenging academics with hands-on experiential learning. Through briefings and discussions with national and international leaders in a chosen field of study, and through realistic, topic-specific simulations, students are immersed in a curriculum that is both distinctive and innovative. We believe strongly that the development of courageous, visionary, and inspirational leaders must begin with our young people. We also believe that in order to properly prepare our next generation of scientists and visionaries to face the challenges of the 21st century, we must provide an education grounded in fundamental scientific principles – something that we could not accomplish without the support of those with a similar vision. LeadAmerica is committed to transforming our world's next generation of leaders by instilling in them ethical and principled leadership values and educating them on the importance of diversity, teamwork, mutual respect, and a commitment to a lifelong love of learning.
