Welcome to Our Blog: A Place for Voices and Stories That Matter
Dear friends, supporters and families,
Welcome—we’re so glad you’re here.
Whether you’ve followed our journey from the beginning or are just discovering us now, this blog was created with you in mind. It’s a space for connection, for honesty, for advocacy, and above all, for amplifying voices and stories that matter.
Our organization exists because of love—love for our children, love for inclusion, love for our community and love for a future where every family is seen, supported, HEARD and celebrated. We believe in the power of community. And we know that real change starts with real stories.
Why a Blog?
Because stories move people.
In our day-to-day work, we meet incredible families, children, and advocates—people whose voices deserve to be heard far beyond the walls of their home, a conference room or a social media caption. This blog is a place where we can go deeper. Where we can share the messy, beautiful, complicated, empowering truth of dwarfism and all that it encompasses while building a more inclusive community and world.
It’s also a place where you can find resources, support, encouragement, and maybe even a little inspiration.
What You’ll Find Here
We’re not here to sugarcoat or sanitize. We’re here to tell the truth, and to hold space for others to do the same. Through this blog, we’ll share:
Stories from families and caregivers.
Lessons learned through lived experience.
Practical resources and inclusive parenting tips.
Advocacy efforts and how you can help.
Honest reflections on what it means to be a Little Person or even raising kids in a world that isn’t always built for them.
Why Now?
Because the voices of our community have not been listened to for far too long, and now is the time to make them a little bit louder.
We Want To Hear From You
This space isn’t just ours—it’s yours too.
We’d love for you to join the conversation, subscribe to stay in the loop, and even share your own story if you feel ready. Advocacy starts with empathy. And empathy begins with listening.
So welcome. Pull up a chair. Let’s build something beautiful together.
With gratitude,
TODA Team (Jessica, Jasmin & Meagan)
