Anytown 2025 Delegate Reference Form
Anytown Alabama is a week-long summer camp dedicated to fostering leadership skills and promoting social justice advocacy among high school students. Established in 1989, Anytown has been an institution in the Birmingham area for generations of students. Initially run by the National Conference for Community & Justice, of AL (NCCJAL), the camp has been under ACE's operation since 2021. For more information about Anytown, please visit our website at www.acealabama.org/anytownalabama

Students currently in 9th through 12th grade can apply. Students that attend camp are called delegates. After a delegate finishes camp they become an Anybuddy and join a community of leaders across the state of Alabama and beyond! Delegates spend a week participating in typical summer camp activities while also developing leadership skills that they take back to their schools and communities. During camp, delegates share their cultures and beliefs while appreciating those of others, participating in open and supportive dialogue, and forming life-long friendships. Anytown is an excellent opportunity for delegates to enhance their resumes and college applications.
