Join us for an educational and discussion based series all about inclusiveness, diversity, equity, and accessibility.
The I.D.E.A. Series will consist of presentations and facilitated discussions about inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility. The goal of the series is to connect, share information, and learn best practices.
Join the Special Olympics Wisconsin (SOWI) Interactive Downtown Madison Inc. I.D.E.A. event, led by two SOWI Athlete Leaders: Lexi Galarowicz and Brittany Wilson.
Special Olympics Wisconsin Unified Leadership has more than 50 years of experience cultivating inclusion in sport to deliver game-changing strategies that prepare people without intellectual and development disabilities (IDD) to transform their communities and workplaces to be more inclusive, so that people with IDD have opportunities to make meaningful contributions and thrive. SOWI believes that people without IDD have the power to unlock opportunities for people with IDD to experience real and meaningful inclusion in their communities and workplaces. Athlete Leaders will share their personal journeys and provide tools to remove barriers to create a more inclusive community for all.
