Parent to 3 young adults including Devon, 24yrs old born with Down syndrome.She is part of the faculty at the University of Washington’s Leadership Education inNeurodevelopment and Related Disabilities (UW LEND) in the Family Discipline, working to inform new health professionals about the importance of Family/Person-centered care and fostering advocacy in others.  When not working she enjoys hanging out with family, baking, and SUPing with the pups.Hodan FarahHodan Farah is the Founder and ExecutiveDirector of Washington Multicultural Services Link is a non-profit organization supporting families with children and adults with disabilities and special health care needs.My middle child was born in 2003 and 14 months later was diagnosed with intellectual disability, visual impairment, and seizure disorder. That was the hardest news I had to hear. I had never heard of intellectual disabilities during that time period and I had no idea how I was going to help my daughter navigate life, living with a disability. Furthermore, having disabilities was and still is taboo topics in my community and I didn’t have the community’s support to navigate what was devastating news to me. I had to learn to look for resources for my daughter on my own. This experience made me feel isolated and lonely, I had to do research on my own and learn how to advocate for my daughter. Through this experience, I met families who had the same needs as me and who unlike me, had language barriers that prevented them from seeking the help they needed for their children\n\n\n\n.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-img{-webkit-mask-image:url('data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB2aWV3Qm94PSIwIDAgMTAwIDEwMCIgeG1sbnM9Imh0dHA6Ly93d3cudzMub3JnLzIwMDAvc3ZnIj48Y2lyY2xlIGN4PSI1MCIgY3k9IjUwIiByPSI1MCI+PC9jaXJjbGU+PC9zdmc+');mask-image:url('data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB2aWV3Qm94PSIwIDAgMTAwIDEwMCIgeG1sbnM9Imh0dHA6Ly93d3cudzMub3JnLzIwMDAvc3ZnIj48Y2lyY2xlIGN4PSI1MCIgY3k9IjUwIiByPSI1MCI+PC9jaXJjbGU+PC9zdmc+')}.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-img,.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-team-member__image{margin-left:0 !important;margin-right:auto !important}.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-team-member__name{text-align:left !important}.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-team-member__description{text-align:left !important;margin-bottom:55px !important}.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-team-member__image{margin-bottom:0px !important}.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-inner-block{text-align:left}.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-block-content{column-gap:100px !important}@media screen and (min-width:768px){.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-img{width:150px;height:auto !important}.ugb-b85aefb.ugb-team-member{margin-bottom:0px !important;padding-top:5% !important;padding-bottom:5% !important}}@media screen and (min-width:1025px){.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-team-member__image{width:150px !important}}@media screen and (max-width:1025px){.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-img,.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-team-member__image{margin-left:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important}.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-team-member__name{text-align:center !important}.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-team-member__description{text-align:center !important}.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-inner-block{text-align:center}}@media screen and (max-width:768px){.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-img,.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-team-member__image{margin-left:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important}.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-team-member__name{text-align:center !important}.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-team-member__description{text-align:center !important}.ugb-b85aefb .ugb-inner-block{text-align:center}}DevonDevon is an advocate, poet, and public speaker, using her voice to celebrate diversity, work for inclusion and protect our environment.
