On Thursday, July 19, 2018, at 1:00 PM, the National Mentoring Partnership will host a 75-minute webinar entitled, "Mentoring Youth with Disabilities: An Opportunity for Friendship, Awareness, and A World of Possibility."
At the heart of youth mentoring is the idea that every young person needs and deserves to have a caring, committed adult in their life. EVERY young person implies an inclusive landscape – but too often, youth with disabilities are not included or considered when we design our youth mentoring programs. How can programs engage and be more responsive to youth with disabilities and what programmatic elements are needed? In this webinar, you’ll hear from mentoring program practitioners and a parent who advocates for, and knows the benefit of, mentoring and inclusion for youth with disabilities.
