The Norwich Free Academy R-Word Campaign: Watch the Video - Spread the Word!

As we write, the word against use of the 'R-Word' is building momentum, one school at a time, around the U.S. and into the global community!

Take a moment now to watch Connecticut's Norwich Free Academy R-Word Campaign video  

Directed, edited, and produced by talented 16-year-old Patrick Kudej with the help of Alyssa Beit, Katie Beit, and many others, this video was uploaded by NFArword to YouTube on February 16th and is going viral.

Help circulate this message around the world: A single word has the power to wound and discourage the acceptance of people with disabilities!

Support Patrick's video; contact him at [email protected], or on YouTube.
