WHO WILL ATTEND 1YL?

1YL is a required event for all full-time, U.S.-based Young Life staff, as well as U.S. staff serving abroad, and their spouses. International staff, select guests and donors have the opportunity to attend by invitation.

HOW AND WHEN DO I REGISTER AND BOOK TRAVEL FOR 1YL?

Pre-registration for 1YL opens in late spring 2023, and U.S. full-time staff and invitees (along with their spouses, if applicable) will specify if they will attend. Full registration and travel booking will open in August 2023.

PLEASE NOTE:​ ALL travel must be booked through the 1YL travel agent and must meet the travel policy parameters. Any travel booked outside of the 1YL travel agent will not be reimbursed (so, maybe don’t do that). Please be sure to book travel through our system! All flights will go through the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and John Wayne Airport (SNA).

TRAVEL FOR ATTENDEES LIVING EIGHT HOURS AND/OR 450 MILES OR LESS FROM ANAHEIM BY CAR

This includes staff in places like: Clearlake, California; Magalia, California; Dayton, Nevada; Stagecoach, Nevada; Reno, Nevada; Sigurd, Utah; Tucson, Arizona. (Please note: This list does not include all locations within an eight-hour drive of Anaheim.) You will be reimbursed for your mileage. Please check out the 1YL Mileage Reimbursement Policy here.
