My Goal While Working with Equip:

My goal is to actively participate in the Equip program, becoming a key part of this supportive community. I want to connect with my peers with disabilities who share similar experiences, giving and receiving support. I aim to gain independence and learn how to tackle obstacles in my path with the skills I'll develop. Above all, I am determined to break down barriers I face and become more self-reliant, using my newfound abilities to contribute back to my community.
I want to work on reaching my goal of making new friends in Equip, learning to do more things on my own, overcoming barriers, building skills, and supporting others in my community.*
