The NYLF is not a scam!

If you or your child has recently received a nomination to attend one of our programs, you probably have some questions.

Most of the answers you are looking for regarding general program information can be found on the program web site or in our overall FAQ.

However, one important concern you might have is of a different nature.

Is NYLF some kind of a scam?

The National Youth Leadership Forum (NYLF) is not a scam. It is a legitimate experience-based learning opportunity for exceptional youth.

• NYLF and Envision EMI have been offering these programs for over 25 years.
• We have educated over 600,000 young leaders.
• Every year we teach thousands more from all around the country.
• Many teachers refer students to us again and again, year after year.
• Many attendees return to participate again or in a related program.

But please don't just take our word for it, read feedback we've received from some of our past and present students.

Envision EMI is a BBB Accredited business. Additionally, the Better Business Bureau has awarded us an "A+" rating. Of the more than 150,000 students that have participated in Envision EMI programs in the last three years, less than .06% of them filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.
