Forge Leadership Network’s mission is to identify
the best and brightest of the next generation and to
train, mentor, and connect them to become the next
leaders in the public square. Forge is a nonprofit
organization that equips students ages 16-24 to
engage culture by teaching them the principles,
policy, process, and practical skills necessary to
impact government and society. Through a careful
recruitment and screening process and a rigorous
“Freedom is never more
than one generation away
from extinction. We didn’t
pass it to our children in
the bloodstream. It must be
fought for, protected, and
handed on for them to do
the same.”
4.5-day intensive program--the Forge Leadership
Summit--we find and train exceptional students,
and then mentor and connect them to positions of
influence in the state of Ohio and the Midwest. Our
signature program takes place during the summer,
although alumni enjoy continuous, extended
training and mentoring throughout the entire
calendar year.

Partnering with Ohio schools, colleges,
homeschool co-ops, and conservative
organizations, Forge identifies and recruits elite
students to a 4.5-day intensive program: the
Forge Leadership Summit.
At the Forge Leadership Summit, students
are immersed in a comprehensive, connected
leadership experience. The 2015 Summit will
be held July 14-18 at Ohio Christian University
and features training at the Ohio Capitol.
Students are taught timeless principles, public
policy, and practical skills while participating
in a simulation of the legislative process. Our
signature workshop features the expertise of
experienced legislators and boasts an ambitious
speaking schedule of state and national leaders.
After the Forge Leadership Summit, a select
number of standout students are chosen for
year-round extensive mentoring, networking,
and growth opportunities. Forge will help
connect and launch these students to top-level
conservative organizations, jobs, and internships
where they can make an impact on policy and
culture.
“If ever the time should come when vain &
aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in
government, our country will stand in need of
experienced patriots to prevent its ruin.”
