“On the workshops organized by YDF, my impression was that Forum provides different perspective and broader range of possibilities for persons with disabilities, having in mind that they were almost invisible before YDF activities”

“I have participated in few projects via Youth with disabilities forum such as “Preparation for a job interview”, “Career guidance and profiling”, and a range of other free courses for persons with disabilities. That helped me obtain new skills and become more competitive on the labor market regardless of my handicap. It streamlined my education and career and helped me make new connections. Being a student on two faculties and a part time employee, that form of support really meant a lot to me. Also, big shoutout to the YDF personnel, they have always been kind and available when needed.”

“YDF enabled me to present myself to the employers in a best possible way. I am getting new job notifications regularly and experts from the Forum helped me create a competitive resume. They provided useful advice on workshops where participants had the chance to make new connections. Above all, they have been a great moral support. They gave me hope and a chance.”

I have found out about the Forum via my association for children with cerebral paralysis from Prokuplje and decided to participate in their activities. The Forum provides great personal support, as well as expert support for employing persons with disabilities. Moreover, they provide support through workshops. I wish them best of luck and to keep growing to a national level association. All the best and hoping for future cooperation!

I am very satisfied with YDF work and activities they organize for persons with disabilities. They provide new opportunities for persons with disabilities like the Preparation for the job interview workshop. They have helped me write my resume and apply for jobs. This year they have provided us with many job ads and a one-year course for persons with disabilities, as well as internships. I have only words of praise for the Forum. YDF activities should be on national level and reach small towns, instead of just Belgrade.

MilosI have been a member of the Forum for almost a decade and had a chance to participate in many self-development and career improvement workshops such as: Activate for employment, Profiling, Career guidance, and English language courses. Workshops were properly segmented and interesting. I made some new friends and I have only words of praise for the Forum.

I have obtained useful knowledge on Creative writing workshop. Additionally, Linkedin course served its purpose! You have justified your function.
