Youth Leadership Academy
Youth Leadership Academy
The FBI Kansas City Division Youth Leadership Program is a one-day program for junior and senior high school students developed by our Community Outreach Program. Students receive an overview of the FBI and learn about internships, crime scene analysis, cyber crimes, hostage negotiations, and more. They are also given a demonstration of FBI SWAT team operations.
The program, which takes place during the summer, is open to any student who will be a junior or senior during the upcoming school year. To be considered, a member of the student’s school administration (principal, vice principal, teacher, or guidance counselor) must write a letter recommending the student for this program. Additionally, a home mailing address and phone number must be provided so that detailed information regarding the program can be sent to the student before the academy begins.
All students who are 17 or younger must have a parent or legal guardian attend the afternoon portion of the program.
Lunch is provided and there is no cost associated with this program.
The letter of recommendation should be sent to:
