How are delegates selected for the forum? The delegates are chosen through a statewide competition that seeks students with disabilities who have leadership potential. Each applicant submits a standard form, an essay and letters of recommendation. The group that is selected is representative of the state in terms of geography, gender, ethnicity and types of disabilities.

Is there a cost for students to attend? No. The commitment of the MYLF is to enable youth with disabilities to grow personally, socially and academically and to fulfill their potential in their lives. No student should be denied this opportunity because of economic hardship. All costs are paid for through fundraising, sponsored scholarships and corporate donations. |
