We are thrilled to have hosted a roundtable discussion facilitated by a project we helped launch, EpiArts Alliance. Co-founders Heather & Anzli, and founding members Nico & Maxx led a discussion on how to make theater stage lights safer for audience members with photosensitivity.

Four years ago, the girl and I watched Born Just Right the book launch into the world. Next year, the book becomes required reading in one of our country’s largest public school systems. It’s pretty amazing.

I’m sad to hear @DisneyPlus leadership plans to remove Marvel’s Hero Project from the platform. When our family agreed to be a part of that project we were promised it would always be on that platform since we were not paid to be in the series.
