NAD Youth Leadership Camp (YLC)

The NAD Youth Leadership Camp (YLC), established in 1969, is an intensive educational four-week summer program for deaf and hard of hearing high school sophomores and juniors. Campers are referred to as Leaders throughout the program. The camp provides leaders the ability to develop their scholarship, leadership, and citizenship (SLC) qualities outdoors. Leaders experience self-discovery, learn about self-identity, confidence, and self-esteem and understand many things about themselves. The NAD YLC is also an extension of the activities and training offered by the Jr. NAD.
