The Baltimore Ravens host their third annual L.I.F.T. conference Tuesday.
The Leading and Inspiring Females to Thrive Conference is a leadership seminar for female student-athletes from Baltimore City and Baltimore County public high schools.
Sophomores and juniors from select schools were nominated to participate by their athletic directors. Student chosen are described as a "united leader" and "unsung hero" for their sports program.
The event is designed to empower the next generation of female student-athletes and develop their leadership skills - helping them succeed both on and off the playing field.
Students will participate in interactive group discussions and a workout.
They will hear from Baltimore Ravens Coach John Harbaugh and 13-time U.S. Paralympic swimming gold medalist Jessica Long.
