“Telling Truth from Lies – Misinformation, disinformation, and AI threats to national security,” the theme for the 2025 Youth Security Forum, is particularly timely in today’s climate. AI experts and authors, Rex and Caleb Briggs, will set the stage and lead exercises to stimulate YSF students to discuss threats to national security from disinformation and deepfakes.
The Annual Youth Security Forum (YSF) event brings students together from Washoe County School District (WCSD) high schools to engage in spirited and civil discussions about timely and challenging national security issues.

As a follow-up to our NSF Forum last March, “Civil Discourse is Essential for National Security,” we are again partnering with Braver Angels to host a vibrant, interactive, and very timely workshop that will teach skills for recognizing and depolarizing our mindsets and provide opportunities to discuss timely national security topics with people who may, or even more important, may not share our perspective.
NSF has covered many topics in our forums and events, but one topic lingers particularly large now as our country experiences widening division and divisiveness…whither “civil discourse.”
