We Aren't As Informed About Intellectual Disabilities As We Think We Are

This article in the 2015 Huffington Post article "Intellectual Disabilities in the US" put into words that those of us that volunteer for the God’s Got This® - Sean Nielsen Foundation have known for a long time. 


“We thought it was a critical time to take a deep dive into our national attitudes,” Maria Shriver, the founder of Shriver Media, said in a statement. “We wanted to know where we are today, where we are going and who is going to take us there. The open-minded attitudes of this generation who grew up in classrooms and playing sports with people with ID makes an undeniable case for inclusion... Experience, inclusion and intervention are the ways to combat isolation, intolerance and injustice.”Maria Shriver
