Best Buddies Leadership Conference (BBLC) unites Best Buddies leaders, volunteers, and community advocates from around the globe to imagine, create, lead and empower the future of the disability rights and inclusion movement.
Over the past 30 years, BBLC has inspired thousands of leaders to be Best Buddies advocates and to bring about social change in their communities.
What people are saying about BBLC:
To be around so much love, inspiration, inclusion and positivity made going home so very hard. It makes you look at the world in a whole different light because you don’t see all that positive energy and acceptance. This weekend was so emotional and I could only hope that I could foster an environment that Best Buddies strives for. I would encourage anyone to attend this conference. I am already counting down the days for BBLC 2024.”
I had a wonderful time at the Best Buddies Leadership Conference. It was better than I could have imagine.”
I hope I can come back next year, it was such an amazing experience!"
