NXTGEN AMBASSADORS PROGRAM
Page 2
Leadership Development Working as part of a national team, mentoring peers, and taking ownership of real projects with real stakes.
WHAT PARTICIPATION LOOKS LIKE We designed this program to fit a student's schedule without overwhelming it.
Virtual Calls Approximately 2 per year with the national student cohort.
In-Person Events Up to 2 per year — food industry conferences, national gatherings, or NxtGen-hosted events.
Community Platform Active participation in the NxtGen Ambassadors Slack workspace — connect, share content, and collaborate.
Content Creation Students are encouraged (not required) to create content representing their school meal program in their own words and style.
Local Council For students at districts with existing youth councils, a minimum number of council meetings per year is required to maintain ambassador status.
There are no daily obligations. This is not a class and it is not graded. Students participate because they want to, and the program is built to reward that motivation.
A NOTE ON TRAVEL
NxtGen Network coordinates and covers travel logistics for all national events. A parent or guardian is required to accompany students to in-person events that involve overnight travel. Local events and sessions — including any held at or near your student's school — do not require travel. You will always be notified in advance of any event requiring travel, with full details before you confirm attendance. No travel commitment is required to join. Students who cannot attend in-person events can still participate fully. MEDIA, CONTENT & YOUR STUDENT'S LIKENESS NxtGen Ambassadors is a content program. Students may appear in photos, videos, podcast recordings, and social media content produced through the program. This content may be used by NxtGen Network and its partner school districts to promote school nutrition programs. Your consent for your student's participation in media and content will be requested separately on the parent consent form. You will have the opportunity to specify any limitations or restrictions.
No content featuring your student will be published without your written consent. Consent is requested separately and can include limitations or restrictions.
