The National Leadership Congress (NLC), is our flagship program for our 16-25 year old future leaders, where you will participate in the nation’s most realistic, simulated legislative session at the Patriot Academy Campus in Fredericksburg, TX! Students will gain in-depth leadership training, hear from top conservative thought leaders, and fellowship with other young men and women. First-year students will be paired with a seasoned alum who will walk you through the bill writing process and be your personal resource to answer your questions from what to wear to how to prepare. We are dedicated to setting you up for success and making this a week you will never forget! 

Tuition includes lodging, meals, transportation to and from the San Antonio airport and between lodging and the Patriot Academy Campus through the duration of the Leadership Congress. 

Upon acceptance, students will receive access to a student dashboard containing comprehensive prep materials. These materials consist of hours of invaluable resources that will edify you for your Leadership Congress experience and beyond!
