KANSAS YOUTH LEADERSHIP FORUM
Seeking Volunteers for 2025 KSYLF

Would you like to spend a week empowering and
supporting high school students with disabilities?

Then volunteer for the Kansas Youth Leadership Forum!

Applications due by MAY 9, 2025

Calling all former and potentially new volunteers! KSYLF is accepting applications for volunteers for our 2025 KS Youth Leadership Forum (KSYLF). We are searching for committed, enthusiastic people who are willing to devote a week to this great program. Do you have the skills and passion to facilitate groups and motivate youth with disabilities? Then consider serving as a volunteer at the 2025 KSYLF to be held July 14-19 at Washburn University in Topeka.

The goal of all facilitators is to empower and support each delegate as they discover inner strengths and abilities as individuals and as members of a group. Volunteers are assigned to work with a small group throughout the week. They also interact with the large group during many activities. Volunteers must stay on campus for the duration of the week that KSYLF is taking place.

New volunteers, past volunteers, and KSYLF alumni are encouraged to apply! Volunteer applicants must fill out our application form, as well as two background checks, and send to the KYEA office by May 9, 2025. Applications can be found on the KYEA website [ [link removed] ].

Give back to youth with disabilities... spend a week of your summer
at the KSYLF! We promise, you won't regret it!
