| Advancing the DREAM - What it means to me |
To me advancing the DREAM means helping create a space in the world where everyone is treated fairly and has the same opportunity to live a healthy life. NOBODY deserves should receive different health care treatments because of their backgrounds, race, or income. Showing respect and kindness can make such a big change and difference. I want to be someone who makes people feel heard, valued, and cared for. I’ll do that by starting off without judgment and with compassion and with that I hope to be doing my part to carry on DR. Martin Luther King Jr.’s version of equality and justice for all.

| My Action Pledge to Advance the DREAM? |
My action pledge is to continue to move forward is to treat every person with respect, fairness, and compassion. I will strive to provide the same level of care and kindness to everyone regardless of their background and continue to learn how to better support people from diverse communities. This affects me because I strongly believe growing up around so many people being told “no” because of their backgrounds and that resulted in my uncle not getting the proper help he needed now he’s paralyzed. Everyone should be able to receive the proper help they need NO MATTER the race or how they were brought up.
