How we make a difference
The Corina Mae Foundation is committed to supporting disabled individuals and their families across Alabama. We focus on key areas to foster understanding, promote inclusion, and ensure disabled voices are heard and valued.
Raising disability awareness
We work to increase public understanding of disabilities, helping to reduce stigma and build a more informed community in Alabama.
Connecting to essential resources
We guide families to crucial services and support networks, ensuring they have access to the care and information they need.
Promoting inclusion and advocacy
We advocate for policies and practices that ensure disabled individuals are fully included in all aspects of community life.
Why understanding and inclusion matter
Understanding disabilities reduces stigma and builds a more inclusive Alabama. Disabled voices must be heard because lived experience shows what support is truly needed. When people listen, communities become safer, more accessible, and more compassionate.
Amplifying disabled voices
We believe in the power of lived experience. By amplifying disabled voices, we ensure that the specific needs and perspectives of disabled individuals shape the support and policies designed for them, fostering true understanding and relevant solutions.
Our vision for Alabama
We hope to create a more understanding, inclusive Alabama where disabled individuals are respected, supported, and heard. Our goal is to reduce stigma, improve access to resources, strengthen community connection, and ensure every disabled person feels valued and empowered.
