The Florida Youth Council, part of the National Consortium on Leadership and Disability for Youth (NCLD/Y) is supported by a partnership between the Florida Agency for Persons with Disabilities and the Florida Developmental Disabilities Council. It is made up of a diverse group of young leaders with disabilities throughout the state.


The people of the state of Florida came up with this bill and we should be the first to pass this bill. The desired outcome is to cut down on bullying of students with disabilities, build self-esteem, and be treated better in society. Students are the future employers and are more likely to hire and promote people with disabilities if they are made aware that people
with disabilities are able to work too.
