Inspired by the energy in their community to get to know individuals with intellectual disabilities, Maria Daniela and Andres Jose decided to organize various activities to facilitate engagement. Maria Daniela and Andres Jose were empowered by the Unified Generation and hope to do the same for others by sharing their confidence that this is the generation that will work together to promote inclusion in an efficient and passionate manner.
