We Create Moments that Matter

through exceptional hospitality, educational programs, and delicious food.

What's happening at TLC:

The Leadership Center is located in Aurora, Nebraska where 

We Create Moments that Matter.

We are a unique nonprofit that has been serving youth since 1968 when 3 agriculture educators purchased an old roller-skating rink to host youth leadership camps for FFA officers. Since then, we have expanded our offerings but have never wavered from our original mission of supporting youth. Now, we also serve their families, community, and beyond with guests across the country. 

"TLC" sits on 43.5 acres with over 13,000 square feet of meeting space, 60 hotel-style lodge rooms, 3 dorm style cabins, a full-service kitchen and numerous recreational opportunities. We also own Espressions: Coffee and Community in downtown Aurora where we serve delicious drinks, showcase local artists, host workshops and community nights, and offer meeting spaces.

    "Spent 6 nights there for art workshop. Service was excellent, food outstanding and on time. Really enjoyed the entire experience. The grounds are well maintained and the rooms are quite. Had great night sleeps. Massage therapist on site which was utilized. Was much more than what I had expected. Rates reasonable. Well worth the money."
