1. Why did you originally get involved with YO?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The reason I became involved with YO! is because I was interested in finding a group of peers like myself in efforts of feeling like I belong in the social clique.<\/p>\n

2. What did you gain from being a part of YO?<\/strong><\/p>\n

In addition to an expansion in my social group; my leadership, advocacy skills and most importantly knowledge about Disability history increased through my work on the Disability History Week Campaign.<\/p>\n

3. Would you do it again if you could? Why?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes, I would participate in YO! again as I’m interested in participating in campaigns which would make a difference in the community (both with individuals with disabilities and individuals who do not have disabilities).<\/p>\n

4. Would you refer or recommend a youth to YO!?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes, I would recommend YO! to other youth in the community.<\/p>\n

5. What was the best part of being a YO! Volunteer or YAC member?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The best part of being a YO! volunteer was having an opportunity to make a difference in the community and wanting to participate as it became a hobby versus being a participant in the activity to fulfill a requirement for school.<\/p>\n

6. How would you describe YO! to a friend?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I would describe YO! to a friend by stating it is a life changing experience by having the opportunity to participate in a social justice campaign with other youth who are pleasant to work with.<\/p>\n

7. What have you accomplished since you completed your Volunteer with time YO! or time on the YAC?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since my time at YO! has ended, I have graduated from San Francisco State with a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and have obtained a job with the Federal government.<\/p>\n
