OWN THE
CHALLENGE

The Mississippi National Guard Youth Challenge Academy connects with and inspires young Mississippians between the ages of 16 and 18 who have not been successful in traditional educational settings. We equip our program graduates with the values, life skills, education, and self-discipline they need to make a positive impact in their communities and for their country.
