For nine years, Arizona Youth Leadership Forum (AZYLF) has continued to successfully serve youth who have a variety of disabilities and diversities. Youth are selected to attend Arizona Youth Leadership Forum for Teens and Young Adults Who Have Disabilities based upon their leadership potential and skills. During AZYLF, youth participate in a dynamic experience that focuses on self-discovery, leadership development, career exploration, effective advocacy, and empowerment through heightened awareness of disability history and culture.

Person Centered Planning

Through Person-Centered Planning, youth are assisted in developing a Personal Leadership Plan which includes specific action items they choose to address as they navigate their futures. Youth have opportunities to engage in ongoing connection, additional training and support, and a variety of peer-based services through the thriving AZYLI Alumni Association, after graduating from AZYLF.

All eligible Arizona youth are encouraged to apply and receive selection consideration.

To be eligible, youth must meet the following requirements:

Identify as having a disability
Have completed at least one year of high school, and be under the age of 30
Wish to increase personal leadership, self-reliance, and self-advocacy skills
Aim to interact respectfully with peers and elders
