About this Project

The UT Austin x Spine Hope collaboration was created by a group of students (Maya, Jeremiah, Aethyr, Aaron, Kartik) part of the Project Advance Austin class at the University of Texas at Austin. This project includes activities for students that promote body positivity and inclusivity, including, coloring pages, posters, interviews, and lesson plans for educators. We hope to teach children how to become strong support systems for people in their community that have a disability.
