Founder, Irma Resendez said “ singing, dancing and sharing kindness is healing to the soul and helps relieve pain, can change sadness to smiles and fears to feeling fabulous!” The concept of the Abilities Prom evolved over 3 years ago when some of the Familia Unida participants were gathered at the monthly health and wellness convening and while sharing experiences about fun times, some laughed and shared that they wished they had gone to the prom. As others began to reflect in their high school days we learned that many others in the group echoed similar sentiments, “I didn’t go to my prom due to my illness, disability, or I was hospitalized during that time, while other said “I was home schooled, or simply didn’t attend because they didn’t have a date or they chose not to attend”. At the end of this evening we decided that in August, we would host a prom and we would recreate a fun prom night and dance to the rhythm that moves you!
