The VISION for LET'S INCLUDE LANDON is that we create opportunities to bring children with and without disabilities together - not just for a day of an event, or a week of camp, but to create lifelong friendships. We cannot wait to see the mutually beneficial relationships grow. For children with disabilities they will benefit from being just as much a part of their community as their non-disabled peers, be part of a team, have a best friend, create true friendships, and have a sense of belonging. And non-disabled peers will benefit from learning compassion, patience, respect, kindness, citizenship, and understanding the value of differences and how to successfully work and play with people who are different.
