#WhatsYourPurpose2021 Youth Transition Campaign

The Institute for Disability Studies (IDS) Transition to Adulthood Programs announce a new 2021 campaign, #WhatsYourPurpose2021. Throughout the year, transition leaders including youth/young adults with and without disabilities, their family members and those that serve them will be featured in short videos and social media posts promoting transition successes and challenging others to pursue their goals. Each video and post will highlight young adults and members of their support networks sharing their future life purposes.

Contact your members of Congress

Call on the phone, e-mail, write a letter or request a visit to or from your current sitting Representative and Senators. This gives you the opportunity, as a voter, to voice your concerns and let your members know how their vote impacts the lives of those they want to best represent.

Vote!

Voting is one of the most important ways to ensure that you do your part to put people in office whose views align with your own.

Be sure to stay up to date with AUCD Emerging Leaders! We encourage all Emerging leaders to submit stories about their experiences within the AUCD Network.
