🐴 Charlie’s Journey with Therapeutic Riding 💙

We were thrilled to see Charlie, who also receives services through Bello Machre, featured in PATH International’s STRIDES magazine! Written by his sister Joan Chevalier, the article highlights how Charlie’s confidence, balance, and communication skills have blossomed through his work with Maryland Therapeutic Riding, a PATH International Premier Accredited Center.

We wanted to give a huge shoutout and thank you to Maryland Therapeutic Riding for their compassionate, excellence-driven programs and to PATH International for sharing Charlie’s story with the wider community. 💙

❤️ Celebrating Brad Lomax: A Champion for Disability & Civil Rights 💙

This Black History Month, we honor Brad Lomax, a powerful advocate who fought for accessibility, equality, and cross-movement solidarity. As a disability rights leader, Lomax helped bring national attention to the needs and rights of people with disabilities.

He played a vital role in the historic 504 Sit-in, one of the most important disability rights protests in U.S. history, helping push forward protections that continue to impact lives today.

His legacy reminds us that inclusion and justice go hand in hand. Let’s continue building communities where everyone belongs. Learn more about Brad Lomax here: https://ow.ly/S9Ob50Y8f2Q
