Our commitment to the disabled community
We are closing a critical gap in Alabama by building a disability‑led foundation rooted in advocacy, awareness, and understanding. Too many disabled Alabamians feel unseen or unheard — we are here to change that. Our work amplifies disabled voices, challenges misconceptions, and helps build communities where every person is respected, valued, and included.
Our purpose, our future
The Corina Mae Foundation exists to foster belonging and dignity for disabled individuals throughout Alabama. We believe meaningful change begins with listening, and that every story shared brings us closer to a future shaped by compassion and equality. Your journey with us begins here.

We envision an Alabama where disabled individuals are fully understood, respected, and included — a state where awareness replaces stigma and every person feels valued.
