Peer Leadership Program (PL)

Peer Leaders participate in training sessions that feature team building activities, skill development and panel discussions on topics such as leadership, conflict resolution, effective communication, advocacy, disability awareness and independent living. All Peer Leaders learn the value of community service and contribute a significant amount of time to PYD programs and outside projects that will have a meaningful impact on the community. As inspirational youth leaders, Peer Leaders emulate the role modeling mission pioneered by PYD’s adult mentors.
