Some of us are self-conscious about our bodies, our skills, or our SAT scores, but there are many teens who are forced to feel self-conscious about their disabilities. See how the SNAP program taught its participants a thing or two about making others feel comfortable.

These two teens acted on their desire to help others and joined the Special Needs Assistance Program (S.N.A.P.). S.N.A.P. teaches teens to work with other teens with special needs at local synagogues and youth groups. The program strives to help synagogues and youth groups become better equipped to serve students with special needs.

This year's program took place during the month of August in Rockville, Md., and was sponsored by the Partnership for Jewish Life and Learning.
