(Tamuning, Guam) Wednesday, July 23, 2025- GTA is now accepting applications for its 2025–2026 Youth Leader Program, marking the sixth year of this initiative aimed at recognizing and supporting students who are leading positive change in their schools and communities.

The program is open to high school students in Guam enrolled for the 2025–2026 academic year with a minimum 3.0 GPA. Five finalists will each receive an iPad Air and a $1,000 academic scholarship.
