Excited to share that our @natsqueaks.bsky.social has published an article on "The Inclusion Movement in Utah" that Deseret News will post about this week. The article is inspired by Tim Shriver's "The Call to Unite" book. Read her entire article at dadnnat.com/wp/inclusion... #ChooseToInclude

The Inclusion Movement in Utah

I wanted to interview some of the people in my life about what Inclusion means to them. Everyone that I talked to in Utah has, or has a relationship to someone with an intellectual or developmental…

Six years ago @natsqueaks.bsky.social & #BFF Katie Hut spoke with Brandon Stanton (Humans of New York). They were in Abu Dhabi at the 2019 Special Olympics World Games. All 3 sat down for a beanbag interview to share vulnerability & the power of friendship. #EverybodySayInclusion #ChooseToInclude

Instagram Post showing Natalie and Katie wearing matching tee shirts that say "UNIFIED GENERATION". Natalie is quoted “When I was little I’d have like five seizures a day. It was horrible and I was always scared. But one week after my eleventh birthday, my mom and dad decided to get me brain surgery. Now I don’t have to worry about seizures and falling all the time. But I can only use one arm now. And because of the surgery there’s a lot of stuff I don’t know if I can do-- like living on my own and stuff. I met Katie at the Special Olympics office. We’re part of a program where you team up with someone who doesn’t have a disability and become like best buds and stuff. At first I didn’t know what to do because, you know, new people. But then it was like OK-- I’m making a new friend. A real friend. We only see each other every couple weeks, but we’ve watched so much Brooklyn Nine-Nine. And we have so many inside jokes. And we even have our own hashtag. And without Katie, I don’t know man. It would be just like it was before, but I wouldn’t have somebody to do this stuff with. I’m having a really hard time right now. My brother was diagnosed with schizophrenia and he’s going through so much and it’s so, so hard. And sometimes he calls me names but I know he doesn’t mean it. And it’s just so hard. But whenever I feel down and stuff, I can just go in my room and think about all the fun memories I have with Katie.” (Special Olympics World Games, Abu Dhabi, UAE)

@natsqueaks.bsky.social describes what inclusion means, and why we ask this question of every guest on our podcast. We think she does a great job describing what inclusion means in her own words!

The irony of RFK Jr being named to head the HHS is in his family name. The Kennedys and the Shrivers are founders of Special Olympics, one of the greatest inclusion programs for people with IDD. People with disabilities are often more vulnerable to infection, and experience more health issues.
