NRVC Mentor Program for NCYC Animators
The National Catholic Youth Conference (NCYC) is a biennial conference sponsored by the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry (NFCYM). It is a three day high energy experience of prayer, community, and key note speakers for over 23,000 high school teens, parents, and their youth ministers from around the country. The 2015 NCYC theme was Here I Am/Aqui Estoy Senor.
