NHI Alumni

 

NHI was established in 1979. Starting with a few hundred participants each year, NHI has grown to serve over 70,000 students at its prestigious summer programs, the YLC (Great Debate), the LDZ, and the CWS. NHI has also become international hosting programs in Argentina, Mexico, and Spain.

Hundreds of participants have come back each summer to serve as volunteer staff for the programs. As time has gone on, it's been tough for the Institute to dedicate enough staff time to keep in touch with alumni and past participants. I hope this lense on Squidoo will be a resource for people who want to connect with former NHI participants and, more importantly, get involved with NHI as a volunteer or donor.
