Thriving Together – The Power of Inclusion: March, 2025 winner
March 2025
It’s not a double take, we got our 2nd March HW! grant winner, Thriving Together – The Power of Inclusion!
This amazing project will provide an educational 60-minute documentary showcasing the abilities and contributions of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), and how they benefit OUR community in a positive manner. Susan Reed, the Director of Business Development at CMC states, “By telling the story of how this population integrates into the community, it serves as a tool to break down barriers and change perceptions of those that may lack an understanding of their abilities and productivity. The protagonists will provide the main voice to the documentary and will be an encouragement to the community to perceive those with IDD in a different light; one that brings positivity and empowerment and helps to end the disability bias.”
