2022 NCYC

NCYC (National Catholic Youth Conference) is a powerfully unique three-day experience in Long Beach, CA, of prayer, community, evangelization, catechesis, service, and empowerment for Catholic teenagers (of high school age) and their adult chaperones. NCYC is the premiere Catholic youth event on a national scale that gathers people from all across America for a life-changing encounter with Christ.

This year’s theme is Walking on Water, inspired by the story of Jesus calling Peter to come out onto the water despite being in the eye of a storm (Matt 14:29). Teens have experienced a feeling of sinking causing a weakening of faith throughout the past two years. NCYC 2022 is an invitation to step out in faith and trust our Lord. Check out this year's schedule and COVID guidelines.

Although the NRVC will not be sponsoring a vocation area, NRVC members are encouraged to participate with parish and diocesan delegations. Exhibit booths are another way to promote vocations at NCYC.  

Register for an information exhibit booth through NFCYM to promote vocations for your religious congregation. Registration is $800 for a 10 x 10 space and includes 4 exhibit credentials. Travel, meals, parking, and accommodations are not included, you must make these reservations on your own. 

Please note that ALL ADULTS are required by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles to complete the Safe Environment Program Compliance and Criminal Background Screening. THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS.
