The Youth Leadership Program invites young people, with any disability, to empower yourselves and others so you can live independently and successfully. The goal of the Youth Leadership Program is for you to enjoy full inclusion in all aspects of your life—your family, your school and your community. We help you work towards independence in living, employment, education, social life, advocacy.
