About us | Partners for Youth with Disabilities (PYD) empowers young people with disabilities to reach their full potential for personal development. Despite progress made in disability rights over the past 30 years, individual and institutional ableism still exist in the world today. Disability remains highly stigmatized, and people with disabilities continue to be denied equal opportunity, access, and independence. We work to change this status quo. We offer various programs such as Access to Theatre, Making Healthy Connections, Mentor Match, and the Youth Entrepreneurs Project. |
