Disabled Young People’s Alliance empowers young people to share their insight into accessibility with the goal of driving policy change. The organisation takes an affirmative model of disability as a root of wisdom – holding that the disabled voice is not often heard in consultation with Young People.
Putting the voice of the young person at the heart of their work, the Disabled Young People’s Alliance has built a reputation as an evidence-based organisation. The team has written reports on the long term impact of hospital stays and parental separation. Both reports have been cited in academic research and meetings held with MPs from all parties.
The Disabled Young People’s Alliance is currently working on a national disabled young people’s census. This will be the most comprehensive survey of disabled young people’s experiences and aspirations. The census will be sponsored by GoogleExample and will run on their latest adaptive technology.
Results will be shared with other disability led organisations, local authorities and government with the aim of changing the way young people’s services are procured for both disabled and non-disabled young people.
Please provide evidence of the nominee’s achievements and successes in the last 12 to 18 months. This supporting evidence can be in multiple formats.
