National Hispanic Institute
University of Rochester
Since 1982, high ability, high achieving 10th, and 11th-grade students have graduated from the competitive and transformative Lorenzo de Zavala Youth Legislative Session (LDZ) experience designed for future community leaders.
You are invited to this eight-day intensive leadership experience filled with unexpected and unplanned challenges and hurdles. Known as “LDZ,” this experience is an opportunity for young people like you to learn how to navigate, manage and create large organizations by taking charge of your own youth government and proposing future community policies and projects.
This form is to sign up to hold your spot for this summers session at the University of Rochester.
Once you sign-up, you will be signed up and won't have to worry about losing your spot. This will also sign you up to be contacted by the program coordinator to learn more and have your questions answered about joining the program.
While there is a cost to attend the program, we are committed to make sure money is no barrier to you participating. We are willing to work with all applicants and are working with local leaders to fundraise for applicants. If you want to attend this summer, we will make it happen.
