Debate Discovery Kids is a student-led nonprofit that brings speech and debate education to kids around the world.
Our camps open doors for students of all backgrounds to explore new opportunities and grow as leaders.
Through year-long programs, high-yield workshops, and a comprehensive 70-page workbook, students gain the confidence and public speaking skills they need to succeed.
At Debate Discovery Kids (DDK), we believe every student deserves the opportunity to develop confidence, critical thinking, and communication skills. Our curriculum and programs make speech and debate accessible to all student—empowering them to speak up, think deeply, and engage with the world around them. With interactive lessons, hands-on coaching, and real debate experiences, we help young minds grow into tomorrow’s leaders.
Developed in collaboration with attorneys and mentors from top debate leagues, our 70-page interactive workbook introduces students to the foundations of argumentation, public speaking, and civil discourse. Filled with hands-on activities and real-world examples, it’s designed to make speech and debate education engaging and accessible to all.
