Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) is Rotary's leadership training program for young people. RYLA participants can be ages 14-30, but our district only takes high school Juniors, and is administered by a dedicated group of Rotarians and Alumni councelors.  RYLA emphasizes leadership, citizenship, and personal growth, and aims to

• Demonstrate Rotary's respect and concern for youth
• Provide an effective training experience for selected youth and potential leaders
• Encourage leadership of youth by youth
• Recognize publicly young people who are rendering service to their communities

The RYLA program is more full detailed on the District 5830 RYLA website. (click on the link on the left)
