Youth Leadership Forum is an event for youth and young adults with disabilities between the ages 15 and 30. This event is to support them with transition skills whether it is going from high school to college, college to work, moving out of parents’ home to living independently, or any other transition phase that may be taking place. This 4-day opportunity encourages youth and young adults with disabilities to practice advocacy in their lives, whether individually or in the community. This experience is aimed at empowering, skill strengthening, and evolving the future generation of disability rights leaders. NCYLF builds young leaders while enabling them to experience independence and find their voice as advocates through fun and engaging activities. This life-changing program is FREE to all participants and provides all requested accommodations, such as interpreters, CART, alternate formats, etc.
