By coming together as authors, family members with and without disabilities will share their stories, poems, and drawings in a published book that celebrates their unique perspectives and encourages them to see themselves as leaders and storytellers. This project will not only shed light on what disability is like for the person living with it but how it impacts each family member in a different way .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Katherine Magnoli would like to take a minute to thank Hector Del Valle and Daniel Ruiz for helping turn her vision into a reality. Her passion for empowering children, especially those with disabilities, has been the spark behind bringing this idea to life. With the teamwork of  herself, Daniel Ruiz and Hector Del Valle, they are thrilled to  head into the next phase of this mission by inviting families and children with disabilities to share the stories of their unique lived experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"6060\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/katgirlandfriends.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/family.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6060\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/katgirlandfriends.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/family.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/katgirlandfriends.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/family.jpg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/katgirlandfriends.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/family.jpg?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/katgirlandfriends.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/family.jpg?resize=416%2C624&amp;ssl=1 416w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/katgirlandfriends.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/family.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure><\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Katherine Magnoli has recently expanded her mission of inclusion for children with disabilities to feel accepted, seen, and heard through literature from writing KatGirl to creating a new book project where she hears your stories!
