After working in both public education & private therapy for children & adolescents with disabilities, they worked together to develop the framework for Be the Change.

Be the Change Charleston celebrates & values inclusion & intersectionality. We actively seek out advisory board members who meet a wide variety of representations. We do not tolerate discriminatory conduct against groups or individuals of people on the basis of race, color, nationality, ethnic origin, ancestry, age, religion, disability, sex, gender identity &/or expression, sexual orientation, or military or veteran status.  Discrimination offends our core values.  All Be the Change Charleston employees, volunteers, participants, & community members are required to uphold our commitment to inclusion, respect, & intersectionality.
