Two students have their backs us and are looking to at an image of the Mars Rover. In the top left there is the lightyear foundation logo. super-imposed over the back of the two students are the words "To every young person with a learning disability: your ideas, your strengths and your dreams matter. STEM needs you. And we’ll keep working to ensure it welcomes you."
This week (and always), we celebrate the strengths, creativity, and voices of people with learning disabilities.
Young people with learning disabilities belong in STEM. As learners, leaders, and innovators. Your ideas matter. Your future matters.
