Youth Leadership Forum July 14-16


Students 17-21 years old are invited to attend the SC Youth Leadership Forum (YLF). This is three-day program for students with disabilities who live in SC and have demonstrated leadership potential in both their school and community. This leadership forum is designed to assist youth with disabilities in further developing leadership skills and in utilizing resources that can help them face challenges to becoming participating members of their communities. There is no charge to attend YLF and all meals are provided. Students are responsible for providing their own transportation to and from YLF. The completed application packet must be postmarked by May 1, 2010. Please note what assistive technology accommodations (e.g. fm system, text-to-speech software, magnifier, or wheelchair) you use and will need during the forum.

The 2010 SC Youth Leadership Forum will be held at Newberry College, July 14th-16th. The forum will include guest speakers, small and large group discussions, team-building activities, ropes course, mentor luncheon, and FUN!
