À propos de cet audio
Kayla McKeon, the first registered lobbyist with Down syndrome, discusses her advocacy work, including lobbying for disability rights and health equity, and her involvement in the creation of a Barbie doll representing individuals with Down syndrome. She highlights the importance of inclusive representation and policy change, such as the Organ Transplant Discrimination Prevention Act and fair wage initiatives. Kayla also emphasizes the high risk of Alzheimer's among people with Down syndrome and the need for related health policy efforts. She concludes with empowering advice: share your personal story, advocate for issues affecting the disability community, and always be yourself.
