Tools 4 Success is a free, virtual conference designed for youth, young adults, and community members who experience a disability to dream, imagine and shape their future!
The conference focuses on career and college readiness and lifting up our youth, young adults, and community members who experience a disability. All of us need a circle of support. The Tools 4 Success Conference brings together the community to share their wisdom, insights, volunteer and paid work experience, college aspirations, resources, and more!
For twenty-four years (March 23, 1999 to the March 22, 2023) the conference was held in-person and by design on the Tacoma Community College Campus (TCC). Rooted to inspire, accessible by design, TCC offers a taste of a college campus. Since 2020 we are offering virtual conferences and welcome your ideas to keep dreaming so that we can shape our future!
