Alabama has hosted its Youth with Disabilities Leadership Forum ( YLF ) on the Troy University campus in Troy since 1999. YLF serves high school students with disabilities from all over the state. The purpose of the forum is to develop leadership skills which these students can apply to persisting life problems in their homes, school, communities, and work environments. YLF offers both volunteer experience and course credit ( 3 hours ) to education and human service college students who serve as counselors . This program takes place in a six day experience in early June. College students spend nights in the dormitory as do the high school delegates. |
