We want you to show your passion and commitment – and create your own video! Share your creativity.
Create a PSA
Create your own 30-second advertisement or Public Service Announcement (PSA). Our message: Eliminate the use of language that hurts and discriminates against people with intellectual disability everywhere.
In the United States, the word might be “retard.” In Germany, it might be “behindi." Whatever they may be, we know that words not only hurt and marginalize, they shape the way we see the world. By changing how we speak to and about one another, we can change the way we think and act too. So shoot your own 30-second PSA and tell us why it is so important to “Change the Conversation.” For more information on this subject, visit www.r-word.org

The video can be as simple or as elaborate as you want. There is no right or wrong way to do it. Just make it your own. And most of all, have fun. Involve your friends or family.
