In this episode, I’m bringing you an interview with a very special mom, Kelly Meissner. Kelly is the founder and CEO of Kate’s Kause, a local charity that raised funds to build a $500,000 accessible and inclusive playground in Elmira. Kelly’s daughter, Kate (age 10), was diagnosed with Angelman syndrome when she was just a year old. Far exceeding Kelly’s dreams, Kate’s Place for Everyone is a playground that has brought together a community and positively changed a family. And Kelly didn’t stop there! Since Kate’s diagnosis, Kelly has realized the effectiveness of inclusive education for students with significant disabilities. Kelly has travelled all over North America attending conferences and workshops to learn how to help students with significant disabilities succeed in mainstream education. We cover so much in this interview:   Kelly has is very open about her motherhood experience, and we discuss the highs, the lows and how it has changed her   She talks about how living with Angelman Syndrome has impacted her daughter Kate and their family   The power of a mother’s intuition, which is a theme that has and will continue to come up in my interviews   Her passion for inclusive classrooms, and why it’s so important for all kids to learn what being inclusive means.   And of course we chat about her non-profit organization Kate’s Cause and what they have achieved with Kate’s Place  Park.   I enjoyed my time with Kelly so much. I teared up many times but mostly when she talked about the love she has for her kids. She was a stranger when she came into my kitchen that day, but she left  a friend.                                Raising inclusive kids with Kelly Meissner  Sarah Bester              Links and resources from this episode:  Sleep Sense Program by Dana Obleman     “It doesn’t matter if it’s disability or something else, we’ve got to have a nice inclusive mindset for all of our little humans growing up” — KELLY MEISSNER    Find Kelly Meissner and Kate’s Kause online here: Website: www.kateskause.com Instagram: @kates_kause Facebook:@kateskauseelmira
