2024 I’m Determined Summit: Youth & Family Event

The Youth and Family Summit is a 3-day event held each June and sponsored by the Virginia Department of Education and the Partnership for People with Disabilities. Youth with disabilities from across the Commonwealth meet to network and discuss issues of importance to youth and young adults with disabilities.

June 11-13, 2024
Festival Conference & Student Center @ James Madison University

Youth and families will learn about 3 key components of self-determination: Competence, Autonomy, and Relatedness.

Youth will attend hands-on sessions that help them understand these three components, how to put them into practice, and how to plan for continued growth in each area.

Parents will attend separate sessions built specifically for them, focusing on the same components and also bringing in awareness of resources and agencies available to families in Virginia.

This event is limited to 50 youth + families. We anticipate this event filling quickly, so do not hesitate to apply!

Applications open now!
