Are you a young person with a disability living in South Carolina?

Do you want to spend the summer building your leadership and advocacy skills, meeting new people, and having lots of fun? If the answer is yes, then the South Carolina Youth Leadership Forum (YLF) is for you!

The 2024 YLF event is July 21-24 at Presbyterian College. Accepted delegates for the event will spend their time hearing from local and nationally recognized disability rights advocates, engage in fun, skill-building activities that focus on leadership, advocacy, and disability pride, and have opportunities to interact with and build friendships with young people from across the entire state.
