Your Voice, Your Choice

The Center on Youth Voice, Youth Choice is a national resource center for youth with disabilities. We talk about alternatives to guardianship (A2G). We work with you, your families, and your supporters. The Center does research, advocacy, and teaches about alternatives to guardianship (A2G). A2G are tools you can use to get the support you need to make tough decisions about your life. You can learn more about A2G by reading and watching stories and looking through our resources. You have the right to make your own decisions about your life!
