Utah first lady Abby Cox and state lawmakers recognized two dozen Special OIympics athletes Wednesday at the Capitol.
"Pledge to use respectful language, share stories to bring awareness and inspire others, attend events that strive to make accommodations, volunteer and support organizations that support all athletes," Riebe said.
In the Capitol's Gold Room, Cox spoke of the value of inclusion, especially during Inclusion Week. She said she has visited school classrooms in the state exploring the ideas of leadership and inclusion with students. Utah first lady Abby Cox greets high school-age Special Olympics Utah athletes as part of her Show Up initiative at the Utah State Capitol in Salt Lake City on Wednesday. The Show Up initiative supports the growth of the Special Olympics Unified Sports program in Utah schools. "I will always be a champion for my friends who don't have a voice, and I want you to be that, too," she said.
