The Lincoln Trail Young Achievers
program, under the direction of the Lincoln Trail Youth
Leadership Council, maintains the philosophy that every
thoughtful investment of time, energy and resources into young people
will pay enormous dividends in the future. We firmly believe that by
working with youth leaders to improve and enhance their leadership
skills, we can help them make an even greater impact on their peers
within the schools and communities in which they live.

The primary mission of the Lincoln
Trail Youth Leadership Council--in partnership with the International
Leadership Network--is to assist our community in applauding,
encouraging and providing opportunities for the leadership development
of our local youth. Since its inception in 1985, LTYLC
has been driven to improve the world of tomorrow by developing its
youth leaders today.

recognition, encouragement, and leadership development by:
Creating a public awareness of the
importance and promise of youth leadership
Providing hands-on programs to build
advanced leadership skills
Saluting young people who exhibit
positive peer influence
Rewarding successful youth leaders
with achievement awards and scholarships
Facilitating an outstanding adult
commitment to youth
