Dawn Parkot has refused to let severe physical disabilities prevent her from achieving her childhood dreams and inspiring others.
Her candidacy alone is a triumph of indomitable individual will, an act that plumbs the depth of personal courage to live a fulfilling life in the face of an illness that would devastate most people and turn them into recluses.
Dawn Parkot explains her candidacy for the Morris School District board of education thusly:

What is Ableism? By: Dawn Teresa Parkot
