New York Applicants

CHCI's High School Latino Leaders in D.C. Program is an exciting opportunity available to students from select geographic areas where Ready to Lead (R2L) events have been held. This page can provide you more information for New York area students interested in applying for the program.

I live in the New York City area. How do I know if I'm eligible?
In order to be eligible to apply, students from New York must either:

  • Live in the borough of the Bronx.
  • Live in the borough of Brooklyn.

While attendance at the Brooklyn Ready to Lead event (held in December) is not required in order to apply, attendance at Ready to Lead will be considered during the selection process. For more information about Ready to Lead, click here.


Students attend Brooklyn Ready to Lead in December 2011.

In addition to meeting one of the geographic requirements, students must:

  • Be a current 9th, 10th, or 11th grade student
  • Be a U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident
  • Demonstrate interest in learning more about civic engagement

While we do require applicants share their grades and a copy of their transcript, there is no minimum GPA requirement to apply.

Interested in applying? Visit apply.chci.org and complete the application named "High School Latino Leaders in D.C. - New York Applicants." Applications must be completed by May 4, 2012!
