October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month.
Here is a powerful message we wanted to share!
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AWARENESS AND ACCEPTANCE
π Awareness is knowing you have a classmate with a disability.
πππ Acceptance is inviting him to hang out with you.
π Awareness is simply realizing someone has a disability.
πππ Acceptance is making real conversation with them.
π Awareness is seeing someone with a disability do something you might not expect.
πππ Acceptance is telling them they're cool, encourage them or work together with them.
π Awareness is saying you have a friend with a disability.
πππ Acceptance is really being a good friend to them.
π Awareness is appreciating the gifts and challenges of those with different skills.
πππ Acceptance is volunteering your time to help.
π Awareness agrees with these statements.
πππ Acceptance is sharing them.
π Awareness doesn't involve doing anything different.
πππ Acceptance is actingβ£
While it's good to have Awareness, we must strive to accept and empower children and adults of all abilities. We all have strengths, challenges and gifts to share.
