While the Youth Tour is a national leadership program, the students are chosen and sponsored by their local electric cooperatives. There are more than 900 electric cooperatives in 47 states and each has their own application process and eligibility requirements. Students from the same state travel together as a group.
In some cases, students from several states may travel together. Either way, you are still going to meet dynamic student leaders from across the country.
Search our cooperative directory to find your local co-op.
