QUOTES FROM MYLiFe ALUMNI:

  • “Regardless of our individual experiences and superficial appearances we all share one integral human similarity, the need to feel valued, productive and connected.”

    Catherine Kelly Baird

  • "I liked the program because it gives me tons of support and I don't have any anxiety anymore as to whether there will be help available to me. This program is amazing. It showed me that I could do anything I wanted to and it's alot easier than I thought it would be. It was inspirational for me."

    - Devin Lofthouse, 2010 Delegate

  • “It’s not possible for people with disabilities to truly integrate until we are recognized as having pride in who we are as disabled people.”

    Steve Brown

  • The ONLY disability in life is a bad attitude!

    June Hermanson

  • “I learned to put out the bad and bring in the good. There is a lot of technology out there for those who are disabled. I met many kids with different disabilities and how they cope with those disabilities.”

    Kara, 2010 Delegate

  • “MYLF has been such a great experience for me. I have learned great leadership skills and I have also learned that it is ok to have a disability it doesn’t make you any less wonderful.”

STEP II

MYLiFe STEP II is the next step in providing leadership training to MYLiFe alumni as they transition from high school into the workforce.  This 5 day long program is offered once a year in June, and brings back alumni from the previous year’s July Forum and MYLiFe Mini’s.

The goals of MYLiFe STEP II are:

¨ High school students with disabilities will become empowered and encouraged to reach their employment goals.

¨ High school students with disabilities will be knowledgeable about resources available to them to become successful, employed adults.

¨ High school students with disabilities will be exposed to professionals with disabilities who are recognized leaders and role models.

¨ High school students with disabilities will become employable and self-sufficient as they transition into the work force.
