EPIC (Empowering People for Inclusive Communities)

EPIC prepares young people with disabilities to be actively engaged community leaders while eliminating ableism to equip the world for today's disabled leaders. EPIC Service Warriors is a one-year leadership development and community service program for youth with disabilities between the ages of 16-23. By creating the change they wish to see in the world the Service Warriors learn more about local communities and develop practical skills that will help them develop as leaders and pursue future goals. We believe that every young person has a Warrior within. EPIC's Training and Consulting addresses ableism and builds inclusion across sectors in order to meet EPIC's mission of equipping the world for today's disabled leaders. EPIC's unique training provides individuals with and without disabilities the opportunity to explore topics such as disabilities, ableism, and inclusion. EPIC provides training and consulting for employers to educate themselves about ableism and to learn how to successfully include individuals with disabilities in their workplaces.
