AACS Youth Legislative Training Conference (YLTC)

Each summer, AACS hosts rising high school juniors and seniors in Washington, D.C. for the Youth Legislative Training Conference (YLTC). This unique program will challenge students to view the U.S. legislative process from a biblical perspective. Students benefit from several activities including a Congressional briefing, professional workshops, and a mock Senate simulation in which they will debate real world issues. This dates for each year's Youth Legislative Training Conference are posted on the AACS website. 

Students will also tour several historical sites in the Washington, D.C. area, as well as visit their Senators and Representatives. Participation in the Youth Legislative Conference is one of the most rewarding opportunities a politically-minded high school student can experience.

​**NOTE:  INDIANA'S ANNUAL APPLICATION DEADLINE IS MARCH 20.

The AACS Information sheet gives a state submission date of March 30, but occurs when many schools are getting back from Spring Break.  Indiana's application deadline is March 20 which allows the IACS office adequate time to process information and meet the AACS deadline of April 5.

Please note also that students are responsible for their own transportation costs to and from Washington D.C.
