The Youth Leadership Corps (YLC) is an Outward Bound scholarship that has been developed to cultivate budding leaders through the unique challenge of a 12-day wilderness expedition. The expedition will have students backpacking along the Appalachian Trail and sea kayaking along the estuaries of the Chesapeake Bay. Students learn the skills that are critical to success and often not learned in the classroom– leadership styles, communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and decision making. The ideal YLC applicant is a 15-17 year old who already shows natural leadership abilities.
Applications are CLOSED for 2024.
