Our good friend Kayla, a medical student at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, is teaching us about physical disabilities, and you can watch the video below! Learn about some different types of disabilities and some amazing athletes, participate in an activity and make a craft, and of course, think about how you can be a good friend to someone who has a physical disability.
Follow along with this continuing series of videos and learn about all the characteristics that make us unique. When the library is open, this team of medical students runs programs at the library to help all of us learn about how similar we are and how we can be good friends to people who are different from us. Their goal is to break down stigmas before they even become part of a child's belief system and promote acceptance and friendship among all people. Check out the virtual version of these events on the library's How to Be a Super Friend playlist.
