## Description

I'm Determined is a transformative initiative funded by the Virginia Department of Education, dedicated to empowering youth—particularly those with disabilities—by fostering self-determined behavior. The project emphasizes the importance of competence, autonomy, and relatedness, aligning with key psychological needs that enhance personal control and well-being. Through tailored direct instruction and practical opportunities, I'm Determined equips young individuals with essential skills to navigate their lives independently.

Structured across Virginia's Training & Technical Assistance Centers (TTACs), the program consists of Determinators (project coordinators) and State Youth Leaders who collaborate to create engaging experiences for youth, families, and educators. With a strong leadership framework, including Co-State Coordinators and a Principal Investigator, the initiative ensures effective implementation of its mission. By actively engaging participants in skill-building activities, I'm Determined helps youth take charge of their futures, moving from passive observers to confident navigators of their own lives. Explore the range of resources, events, and support available to foster self-determination in your community.
