OUTREACH PROGRAM
The Understanding Dwarfism Program is dedicated to educating and raising awareness about dwarfism. It also acts as a support program to assist those who wish to educate and raise awareness about dwarfism on their own. We lend support through our outreach program by offering creative ways to maximize other people's efforts. This is done by networking, offering printed materials, banners, displays, a web site, information, and support to create a uniform and attractive means to raise awareness. We believe educating is the most effective tool to allow people to gain an understanding and the best way to improve the lives of those who live with a type of dwarfism.
Together we can reach higher goals, even if it takes educating the world one person at a time. Whether it is in a classroom or on the world-wide stage, please contact us to find out how we can help maximize your awareness efforts. Below are a few options that are currently available. Please check back in the near future for updates. We welcome suggestions to making this program or yours most successful.
