A Second Chance at Life

Meet Joel. For Joel, those words changed everything. A refugee from the Democratic Republic of the Congo living in Uganda, Joel faced barriers because of his intellectual disability. Through Special Olympics Unified with Refugees, he discovered friendship, confidence, and the joy of being included. This #WorldRefugeeDay, witness the impact that inclusion can have—not just on one person, but on entire communities.
