Project Information

Description

Now in its seventh year, the Youth Leadership Conference (YLC) on Asian and Pacific Islander Health is designed to motivate and inspire over one hundred talented and enthusiastic high school students who will become the national and global leaders of tomorrow. YLC is a four-day conference at Stanford University where students will learn about the fight against hepatitis B (HBV), from the scientific and epidemic aspects of the disease to strategies of outreach and education. During the intense four days, participants will learn about the process of planning culturally sensitive community outreach events through workshops designed to teach strategies for conducting health education, developing marketing and advertising campaigns, and fostering leadership skills. Conference attendees will work together in teams to apply their newfound knowledge by designing their own outreach event from conception through implementation, and then presenting it in front of a panel of judges. YLC participants will meet other students interested in making a difference in public health and gain leadership skills for effecting change in local communities.

The application deadline has now passed. Please check back next year for the YLC 2010 Application, which will be available in the Spring of 2010 at http://liver.stanford.edu.
