Hi there ––

More than ever, the world is in need of action for inclusion. People with intellectual disabilities (ID) are used to a world of isolation, a world of loneliness, and a world where they feel like they don’t belong. 

But it doesn’t need to be this way. An inclusive world can be created through individual acts of inclusion – finding and welcoming those who have been left out, being a teammate, and becoming a friend. We believe that inclusion is a skill that we can all practice – and when we do, we become better at including all people.

That’s why we are asking everyone to pledge to include and #GoingAllIn. Join the millions of others who have already done so. Here’s what they have to say. 

Committing to be more inclusive only takes a minute but will make the world a better place for ALL people with intellectual disabilities.
