The Annual Youth Summit for Young People with Disabilities
August 5, 2022 - August 6, 2022
The Annual Youth Summit
The Annual Youth Summit is a place for young people with disabilities between the ages of 15 and 30 from communities across the state of Florida to come together to lean, share, and network. This two-day event is hosted by The Florida Youth Council (FYC), a group of youth and emerging leaders with disabilities who have a passion for encouraging leadership and advocacy among their peers. The FYC is all about youth empowerment and youth involvement, and the entire Annual Youth Summit is planned by youth, for youth!
The 14th Annual Youth Summit brought together over 100 youth and emerging leaders to attend engaging youth-only sessions on a wide variety of topics, including transition, workplace preparedness, and post-secondary schooling. We also had a great, youth-friendly keynote and fun social activities at The Summit, including a dance party to cap off the festivities. There were plenty of opportunities for attendees to network, and share their thoughts, experiences, and aspirations.
The 15th Annual Youth Summit will be held at The Florida Hotel and Conference Center in Orlando August 5-6, 2022. Limited financial assistance will be available. Registration will be available in June, 2022.
