I live in the Phoenix area. How do I know if I'm eligible?
In order to be eligible to apply, students from the Phoenix area must reside in Maricopa County.

While attendance at the Phoenix Ready to Lead event (held on February 9, 2013) 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 Phoenix Ready to Lead in February 2011.

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

Be a current 9th, 10th, or 11th grade student
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. - Phoenix Applicants." Applications must be completed by April 8, 2013 at 11:59 pm Eastern Standard Time. That's 8:59 pm Mountain Standard Time!
