✨ We’re inviting YOU to something special! ✨

My son and I went out in front of COSI to personally invite our community to join us for an amazing day of science, fun, and inclusion!

📅 May 2, 2026
⏰ 11 AM – 5 PM
📍 COSI Science Festival – Columbus, Ohio

We’ll be there with our booth:
💡 “Scientists with Disabilities: Changing the World”

This is so close to my heart ❤️
We’re creating a space where kids and families can see that disabilities do NOT limit possibilities—there is greatness, innovation, and purpose in every single person.

Come out, bring your family, and experience something inspiring with us!

Let’s show the world what inclusion really looks like 💙

I had the honor of attending the Omega Day Program ribbon cutting as a Commissioner and as the Founder of UPFAD.

Moments like this remind me why this work matters. Seeing organizations open their doors to serve individuals with disabilities and their families is powerful. It takes vision, commitment, and heart.

Congratulations to the entire Omega team on this incredible milestone. Thank you for being a part of building a more inclusive community here in Columbus.

https://youtu.be/_fACBMAhbKE?si=PCV7FatGmHDZTz27 I wanted to share the recent CACDI meeting where the Department of Public Safety spoke. We also discussed the unfortunate closure of Columbus Speech & Hearing. It was emotional for me, but it’s important to keep these conversations going in our community.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

To our Deaf community, interpreters, and families navigating disability every day—your access matters.

Sign language interpretation is not an extra; it is a bridge to understanding, participation, and dignity. When accessibility is honored, people thrive.

UPFAD stands for inclusion, respect, and equal access—for every family, every time. 🧩👩‍🦯👩‍🦼👩‍🦽🧏‍♀️🦮🫆🧍🏾‍♀️
