The Kansas City FBI Youth Leadership Academy is a program similar in nature to the Citizens' Academy. The program, which is one day in duration, is hosted during the summer and is targeted at juniors and seniors in high school.

The academy provides a tour of the FBI office building and briefings on topics which include, terrorism, violent crimes, white collar crime, cyber crimes, employment and internship information. Additionally, the participants generally receive a tour of the area Regional Computer Forensic laboratory.
