Welcome to the Texas YLF

Lead. Advocate. Influence.
The Texas Statewide Youth Leadership Forum (YLF) is held annually in Austin and hosted by the Center on Disability and Development at Texas A&M University. Each summer, YLF provides all expense paid leadership training and experiences to 30 individuals with disabilities. These delegates are selected from high school juniors and seniors from all over the state of Texas.

YLF delegates are empowered to advocate for individuals with disabilities and influence public policy. They harbor the potential to become role models for other youth with disabilities in areas of employment, independent living, and more!
