📣 WE'RE LOOKING FOR YOU.
✨ Paid leadership opportunity for Alaskans with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

One of the most powerful things a young person with a disability can experience is meeting an adult with a disability who can say: I have been where you are.

That's exactly what School Ambassadors do. And we're building a team of up to 250 of them from communities across Alaska.

✨ If you are 18 years or older and have an intellectual or developmental disability and you're ready to walk into a classroom and change how a young person sees their future — THIS IS YOUR MOMENT.

As a Peer Power School Ambassador, you'll speak with students about:

• Self-advocacy and knowing your rights
• Employment, transition, and life after high school
• Participating in your IEP and making your own decisions
• Independence, community leadership, and so much more

🚫 NO public speaking experience required. We provide ALL training and support.

💵 Ambassadors receive a $100 stipend per eligible school presentation.

✈️ Travel expenses covered when needed — where you live or what's in your bank account will NEVER be a barrier.

We're recruiting from communities across Alaska, including Anchorage, Mat-Su, Fairbanks, the Kenai Peninsula, Southeast Alaska, and rural communities statewide.

YOU belong in this role if you:
✅ Want to help younger people with disabilities
✅ Have experiences and a story worth sharing
✅ Want to build your leadership and public speaking skills
✅ Are ready to step into advocacy in your community

We are not waiting to be invited to the table anymore — and we don't want you to wait either.

This is what our leadership actually looks like.

Agendas on the table. Sticky notes everywhere. Decisions being made by the people most affected by them.

We do not wait for permission to lead. We build the room, set the agenda, and run the meeting.

This is disability leadership in Alaska. Not a symbol. Not a seat at someone else's table.

Ours.

Disability rights are civil rights.

At Peer Power, we believe in living the life people choose with the services they direct.

That includes real community, real work, and real leadership led by people with disabilities.
