About C2P2

Modeled after Minnesota's Partners in Policymaking, Competence and Confidence: Partners in Policymaking (C2P2) is a leadership development training program designed for individuals with disabilities, parents of young children with disabilities and university graduate students. C2P2 provides up-to-date information, leadership training and skill building. National and local experts teach participants about the local, state and national issues that affect individuals with disabilities.

C2P2—"Transition to Adulthood"
A free training project for young people with disabilities and their families. This year we focus specifically on transitioning from high school to adulthood. The program is open to a limited number of people. Applications are due on or before September 7, 2007.

C2P2 participants make a commitment to attend six two day training sessions during the course of a year. The two day sessions typically run from 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM on Fridays and 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM on Saturdays. The program selects highly motivated people who represent different ethnic backgrounds and, who for the most part are not already involved in advocacy organizations.

Participants are reimbursed for travel and any necessary lodging; reimbursement for personal assistance services and child care costs is made on an individual basis.

Graduates learn to advocate for themselves and others. They gain the ability to teach policymakers a new way of thinking about people with disabilities.

Funded by: The Pennsylvania Developmental Disabilities Council
