WHO WE ARE

The USNSCC is a national youth leadership development organization that promotes interest and skill in naval disciplines while instilling strong moral character and life skills through leadership and technical programs modeled after the Navy's professional development system.

WHAT WE DO

The Yorktown Division serves to teach individuals about the sea-going military services, United States Naval operations and training, community service, citizenship, and an understanding of discipline and teamwork.

 

HOW WE DO IT

The Yorktown Division operates very much like a military reserve unit. We drill twice a month. Cadets have the opportunity to learn skills from active duty & military veterans, who are experts in their fields. We train primarily aboard the historic USS Yorktown.
