2019 MOVE Summit - for African American Males with Disabilities

MOVE is a VDOE sponsored, optional three-day institute for African American males, aged 13-21 with disabilities and their parents.  It will be held July 14-16, 2019 on the campus of Virginia State University in Petersburg, Virginia.  Utilizing state leadership and mentors, young men engage in activity-based learning.  Participants unlock their potential to overcome barriers, become self-determined, and graduate high school to be college and career ready.  Concurrent parent workshops offer resources and tools to promote self-determination in their sons and increase parent engagement in the education process.  For additional information visit: http://www.imdetermined.org/youth/move/
