Respect, Kindness, and Inclusion at Skyline
FRIDAY is Green Day, dedicated to raising awareness for cerebral palsy (CP) and muscular dystrophy (MD).
Did you know that approximately 2 children out of 1,000 are born with Cerebral Palsy (CP)? It's the most common movement disorder in children, presenting as a group of permanent movement disorders that emerge in early childhood. Despite its prevalence, there are misconceptions, such as the belief that those with CP always struggle with learning and academics.
Muscular Dystrophy (MD) is another condition we aim to shed light on. It's a genetic disorder that gradually weakens muscles over time. People with MD require a supportive and inclusive environment to participate in activities at their own pace.
Make the Kindness Challenge and sign the pledge at lunch to make inclusion a reality for everyone, regardless of intellectual and developmental disabilities. Join us in spreading kindness and inclusivity by sharing the message at lunch today. Let's make a difference together!
