People's Arc of Suffolk

SANYS U: Building Leaders Through Self-Advocacy People’s Arc hosted SANYS U at our Sayville PWW program — a multi-session leadership course empowering people with developmental disabilities to explore their rights, strengthen their voices, and become leaders in their communities. The program brought together 20 participants and their support staff for interactive learning, teamwork, and leadership projects that concluded with a meaningful graduation celebration. Congratulations to this inspiring group of self advocates!
