AmbassadorsDiplomats of diversity. Rockstar representatives of inclusion. Our HUG Ambassadors wore the shirt with pride, talking up the wonderful reasons why we should include people with disabilities in our social and work lives.
.
HUG Ambassadors have been people of all ages and abilities who share the HUG message of inclusion, reach out to other people with disabilities who need help making friends, and represent positive images of people with disabilities at events and in the community. Even though the program is no longer active, you may still find an amazing HUG Ambassador proudly wearing their t-shirt. Feel free to give them a high five for a job well done.
