Young Muslim Leadership Council (YMLC)

The Young Muslim Leadership Council (YMLC) is the youth arm of CAIR-Texas.

Why YMLC: Every day, we at CAIR-Texas wake up and ask the question, "how do we change the world"? We ask ourselves, "how do we transform the miserable condition of the Ummah and tackle the multiple problems impacting humanity." Our simple answer, "one young Muslim at a time." Successful graduates of our leadership program who want to apply all what they have learned, are eligible to apply for YMLC Board. YMLC aims to inspire, train, and network the next generation of American Muslim leaders.

○ Upon term end, leaders will have the option to run again for the
