School Awareness Program
Bring empathy, inclusion, and resilience to your school—one powerful program at a time.
Our School Based Learning Program brings lived experience directly into the classroom. We connect schools with inspiring speakers who have faced real challenges such as disability, illness, mental health, or loss and who can share their stories with honesty and hope.
Students also participate in hands-on workshops where they can experience what daily life feels like for someone navigating these challenges such as using a wheelchair or cane, practicing accessibility awareness, or learning about medical devices like insulin pumps.
These interactive sessions help students build empathy, reduce stigma, and develop a deeper appreciation for every person’s dignity and potential. Students walk away with meaningful understanding and a greater commitment to kindness, inclusion, and support for others in their community.
