À propos de cet audio
Each summer, California’s Youth Leadership Forum brings high school students with disabilities from across the state to Sacramento for a week of learning and fun. The students stay on campus at Sacramento State University, gaining a taste of college dorm life. Often, this is their first time away from their families and support systems. They learn about self-advocacy, independent living, and life after high school from mentors who themselves have disabilities. Our new co-host, Alexa Guerrero, has participated in YLF as a disabled mentor to the high school students for a number of years.
For more on the Youth Leadership Forum and disabled youth engagement more broadly, we’re joined by two guests. Matt Baker is the Project Manager for YLF at the California Committee on Employment of People with Disabilities. We’re also joined by Dani Anderson, Disability Access Manager for the Ventura County here in California.
