About
Become a leader for America
The Leadership Institute will give you the training, resources, and mentorship to shape the future of our country.
Learn how to win real victories for what you believe in.
The Leadership Institute turns conservatives into leaders – empowered to defend and advance the founding principles of our country.
Through training and mentorship, the Leadership Institute is the first and best organization focused on creating conservative leaders who make a difference today and for years to come.
America will only stay free with a steady flow of conservatives who rise up to lead.
Although many organizations exist to increase the number of leftist activists, few similar organizations exist to serve conservatives. Because conservatism tends to focus on the power of ideas, most conservative organizations are think tanks that focus on policy or legislation.
But those policies won’t get enacted without conservatives in positions of leadership to drive them forward.
