To Be Like Me Gallery Wall
The To Be Like Me's Gallery Wall highlights common questions and offers viewers tips on etiquette for interacting with people who have disabilities and the Braille alphabet and sign-language basics – with a challenge for guests to post videos of themselves signing their names.
To Be Like Me employs people with disabilities or differences to be LEADers (Leaders in Education and Advocacy for Disabilities). The organization hosts programs where LEADers share their stories, answer questions and provide disability awareness education to students, teachers and community groups.
Galleria Dallas shoppers can meet some of To Be Like Me’s LEADers on Sunday, Aug. 9. From 1– 3 p.m., LEADers will share their knowledge about the nonprofit and engage in activities such as teaching sign language or typing in braille.
