YAC APPLICATION

Special Olympics believes that young people can make a difference in their schools and communities through sports and sports related programs. Special Olympics Unified Champion Schools is an initiative that brings youth with and without intellectual disabilities together to make a difference. Unified Champion Schools is driven and informed by the advice of youth leaders representing intermediate and secondary schools across the country. College students are often youth activation leaders as well. This results in young people becoming agents of change in their communities.
