July is Disability Pride Month, and Kic community member
Lauren McDonough does an outstanding job of not only raising
awareness around disability, but mental health as well.
Lauren lost the lower half of both of her legs in a tragic incident
in 2017 where she attempted to take her own life. Since then,
Lauren has not only turned her life around in being a mental health
advocate and ambassador for Beyond Blue and Liptember, but she has
also been able to embrace her disability and spread the very
important message that we can all make small changes to help
support those with disabilities and make the world a more inclusive
and accessible place. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy
