Including Samuel: The Power of Youth brings us behind the scenes of a youth summit, inspired and co-organized by the film Including Samuel, to create an arm of the audience engagement campaign that is teen led and teen focused. What materializes is the "I am Norm" campaign, a youth-led campaign for the full social and educational inclusion of people with disabilities. This national campaign, launched in 2010, has extended the life and reach of the film. The creation of this peer-to-peer campaign demonstrates how to empower youth in a way that is truly participatory and meaningful.



IMPACT is a series of videos created by Working Films and The Fledgling Fund focused on building film campaigns that ignite social change. Previous videos include "Deep Down: Make it Local," "No Impact Man: Activating Your Audience" and "IMPACT: A Funder's Perspective."

  • I wish there had been something like Including Samuel and the Youth Summit when I was a teen in the 80's for my peers and myself. Thanks to Dan Habib, Clay Aiken, Diane Bubel and many others that we have these resources for the teens of today. I have some mild disabilities and I am ambulatory on most days, so sometimes I've felt like I wasn't fitting in with those who have disabilities nor with those who don't have them.

  • Thank you Dan for another video that inspires me to continue to advocate full inclusion for my daughter. Young people will be the ones to change attitudes. I have see in her own school and at her dance competition. I'm very impressed with the thoughts and ideas of these young people.

  • Brilliant! Great job kids!

  • Hey Dan:

    Great video! As usual. Youth are our future and the power. Waiting on your next documentary: showed the trailer to HS faculty: very powerful. THANKS for everything you do.
