With the support of various social service agencies and sponsors, the “Ability Ambassador Program “will offer mentors from the disability community to speak to groups of all ages and demographics, from schools to corporations, about their experiences as a person with a disability and we hope in the process to educate and empower the broader community regarding issues of disability and inclusion. After successfully completing the necessary training, candidates will be paid a stipend to represent the “Disability Channel “at events, conferences and fundraising initiatives.

We are looking for potential ambassadors that are 17 years of age or older and have a disability of any kind that would be interested in becoming involved as an “Ability Ambassador” for the channel.
