Northern Youth Leadership

Empowering and inspiring a generation of courageous young northern leaders.

Northern Youth Leadership (NYL) runs remote wilderness programming for youth aged 11 – 17 from across the NWT, with some programming open to youth from across the territories and Inuit Nunangat. Our programming helps youth to develop leadership skills, life skills, emotional resilience, and to challenge themselves through positive risk-taking. In addition, NYL runs the Leadership Development Program which is a youth employment program that includes mentoring, training, and paid employment opportunities. On average NYL runs 4-6 programs annually involving 75 youth from approximately 30 communities across Canada.

Northern Youth Leadership strives to be inclusive, and remove as many barriers as possible to participation. All programming is FREE to participants. NYL covers the cost of return travel from their home communities, accommodation, and food. We are able to do this thanks to our generous financial partners.
