The Emerging Leaders Conference encourages Missouri youth to become engaged in the legislative process. Divided into two parts — civic engagement and college access — this conference gives students an opportunity to build on their leadership skills.
Selected applicants will participate in a range of activities focused on exploring and debating community issues, diverse political perspective and the legislative decision-making process. Students will also gain access to the college-planning process and experience postsecondary socialization and events on the University of Missouri campus in Columbia.
