It is February School Vacation week, which means it is EPIC Service Warrior Interview Week!

We are busy in Boston and Worcester interviewing EPIC young leaders with disabilities from across the state who are applying to join our 2026-2027 EPIC Service Warrior teams. One of the best parts of being EPIC staff is interview season! So many EPIC young leaders are coming through our doors seeking to help their communities. It doesn’t get better than that!

We are still accepting applications on a rolling basis, so if you know a young person with a disability between the ages of 16 and 23 who is ready to grow their leadership and discover greatness through service, please share this EPIC opportunity with them!

Learn more and apply at epicleaders.org/servicewarriors

It’s our favorite day of the week, Warrior Wednesday! This week, we are excited to shout out an EPIC Alum who is putting his advocacy into action. Myles was a Boston Warrior on the 2015 team.

During his time at EPIC, in addition to being a Service Warrior, Myles was also a youth trainer working in classrooms to teach self-advocacy skills to students with disabilities. After EPIC, he moved to Rhode Island, where he is now working to advocate for accessible transportation on various levels. He has been on the RI Statewide Independent Living Council, volunteers at his local independent living center, and can be regularly seen at the RI Statehouse advocating for accessible transportation. On top of all his amazing advocacy work, Myles was also recently appointed to the Board of Providence Streets Coalition! Congrats, Myles! The people of Providence are lucky to have you advocating for them!

Today we’re celebrating a major milestone for one of our Worcester Service Warriors! Two days ago, Matthew moved into his own apartment and is now living independently—separate from his sister and family—for the first time.

Way to go, Matthew! This is a huge step toward your independent living goals, and we couldn’t be more proud of you.
