​

The camp runs from 7/1-8/3.

Coaching sessions can be scheduled at a student's leisure anytime in this window. 

All coaching will be done digitally over Zoom. Sessions and other activities will be scheduled intermittently throughout each week around students' schedules to accommodate any conflicts or other commitments students will have.

ELITE STAFF

Our staff have amassed 40 T6 placings at TOC bid tournaments, multiple major championships, and have coached finalists at almost every major tournament in the US. We can say, with confidence, we've got the best team on the market.

FLEXIBLE

Our camp is structured to accomodate every student, regardless of schedule or budget. Students will get to schedule all coaching sessions based on their own summer plans. You can travel, intern, work, study, and still fit our camp into your summer schedule!

AFFORDABLE

Our camp costs a fraction of what similar camps charge and offer financial aid for all students who need it. Our maximum aid award is a fully subsidized tuition. We awarded almost $5,000 in financial aid in 2023, including multiple full-ride scholarships.

NCI 2024 MIDDLE SCHOOL

This year, we are excited to pilot a new edition of the National Congress Institute, designed specifically for debaters in middle school and/or preparing for the transition to the high school competitive circuit. Leading Middle School NCI will be Nick Chen and Zach Wu, who have taught middle school Congress courses since 2021 together at Youth Voices. During this time, their students have won or placed 2nd at the Harvard Middle School Tournament three times, the Middle School Tournament of Champions three times, and the NSDA Middle School National Tournament in 2023.

 

It's safe to say that at the middle school level, nobody does it better than Youth Voices. Join us this summer and we’ll take you to the top. 

$500 FOR 5 WEEKS OF INSTRUCTION

WHAT DOES THE PROGRAM LOOK LIKE?

8 sessions of one-on-one instruction 

​

Accomplished staff of champion current HS debaters 

​

Multiple labs and group coaching activities per week 

​

Mock rounds held jointly with NCI - High School 

WHO SHOULD JOIN US?

The Middle School edition of National Congress Institute 2024 is meant for students ages 10-13 who are currently in middle school or will be freshmen in the fall. Our camp prepares such students for the transition to competitive HS debate, building the right foundations for a successful debate career.
