Yesterday morning marked an important step forward for accessibility in Arab, Alabama. Our founder met with Mayor Bob Joslin and Economic Developer Melissa Cook to discuss several concerns raised by residents, particularly regarding sidewalk conditions and handicap parking enforcement throughout the city. Both leaders were warm, welcoming, and demonstrated genuine commitment to improving accessibility for all who live in or visit Arab.
Across Alabama, there are places where community is more than a word, where neighbors care for one another, and where fellowship is woven into everyday life. Baileyton Senior Center is one of those places, a small‑town gathering spot that reflects the very best of our state’s spirit.

With today’s heat index in Huntsville climbing near 107°F - and yesterday reaching 101°F - the first concern on our founder’s mind was the safety of our homeless neighbors. More than 200 individuals are currently living unsheltered in Huntsville, and with local shelters and nonprofits stretched thin, the rising temperatures pose a serious risk.
A call to recognize the unseen barriers and rebuild accessibility across all 67 counties
Every July, people across the United States come together to celebrate Disability Pride Month — a time dedicated to honoring disabled identity, amplifying disabled voices, and recognizing the strength, resilience, and diversity within the disability community. For The Corina Mae Foundation, this month holds special meaning as we work toward building a future where disabled individuals in Alabama are supported, included, and empowered.
