Become a Leader
Become a Leader was a program that ran eight month courses across NSW giving people with disability and their family members skills in leadership, both in their own lives and in the community.
Each leader was part of a social change project throughout the course and also had a mentor to guide them through the journey. Below you'll find some of their stories. Make sure you watch, read, and listen to some of them and get inspired!
Want to become a leader too? Become a Leader is now available as an online course. Register to do the course today and start your own leadership journey!
