HELLO ALL,
I APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE IF THIS IS SHOWING UP ON MULTIPLE DISTRIBUTION
LISTS. I THOUGHT THAT SOME OF YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN THIS:

NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR THE ADVOCATES IN DISABILITY AWARD (ADA) PROGRAM
The HSC Foundation's ADA Program is seeking the next generation of
disability advocates!
Young leaders with a disability are encouraged to apply for up to
$10,000 in funding

The Advocates in Disability Award (ADA) program awards and encourages
a young adult with a disability between the ages of 14 and 26 who is
dedicated to positively affecting the lives of individuals with
disabilities and their families. The program also supports an
innovative project developed by the recipient to serve and empower
individuals with disabilities.

Funded by both The HSC Foundation and the Sarah Beth Coyote
Foundation, the selected recipient is awarded $3,000 in recognition of
his or her disability advocacy and will receive up to an additional
$7,000 in funding support for a project to benefit the disability
community. Applicants must be a citizen or permanent resident of the
United States at the time of application submission and recipient
selection.

The Advocates in Disability Award Program is part of The HSC
Foundation's National Youth Transitions Initiative.

To apply, please see the attached guidelines and application. You may
