Independence Seekers Project is hosting our first ever Unconference event on May 30th - 31st. We are seeking volunteers to help with tabling, leading groups and other tasks. If you are ready to make a positive impact and become part of a joyful supportive team, we'd love to hear from you!
About the event:
Independence Seekers Project Unconference is a free Kentucky-focused two-day gathering created for and by disabled people. Unlike a traditional conference, an unconference is driven by the participants themselves. This special event is an opportunity for disabled individuals to:
1) Share their voices, ideas and experiences.
2) Talk openly about their goals, dreams, interpersonal relationships, sexuality, and challenges.
3) Learn about advocacy, communication, and self-determination.
4) Build confidence and connection in a safe, inclusive space.

Mission Statement
Independence Seekers Project is a Nonprofit organization that supports and uplifts disabled individuals as they explore new definitions of independence and community. We believe that independence doesn't mean doing everything alone - it means having the right tools, choices, and support to thrive in ways that are personally meaningful.
Description
