TO HAVE RESOLVE
The I Have Resolve Foundation provides awareness, education, and works in support of inclusion for anyone who faces a physical, social, developmental, or learning challenge. We focus on education, well-being, and supporting inclusion opportunities for individuals, families, organizations, schools, and communities to meet the needs of persons with disabilities.
Our goal is to promote shared opportunities to bridge the gap between those with and those without disabilities. We are committed to increasing the quality of social interaction, work to reduce isolation for those with disabilities, as well as focus on inclusion learning for all.
We believe in a mindset of we all belong. In belonging we live, work, learn and play together to grow, show each other respect and kindness.
OUR THREE PILLARS OF INCLUSION
Inclusive Education for Everyone
We believe every child deserves to learn and grow in an environment that celebrates diversity. Through partnerships with camps, schools, and educators, we support inclusive learning experiences that build empathy, belonging, and leadership among all students.
Opportunities for Persons with Disabilities
We invest in meaningful opportunities that support social connection, recreation, and empowerment. Whether it’s accessible playgrounds, gaming systems for homebound youth, or inclusive sports and events, we’re committed to breaking down barriers and building community.
Inclusive Classroom Supports
Our Classroom of Resolve initiative equips classrooms with specialized resources and tools to support students with disabilities. From adaptive materials to sensory-friendly spaces, we work with educators to create learning environments where every student can thrive.
INCLUSION

KINDNESS
To embrace all differences, participate in all life’s activities equally and ensure we all belong

A bit of a full-circle moment today.
Today I delivered Classroom of Resolve items to a school that I attended many years ago. While I was there, the principal took me over to their graduating class wall — and there I was.
For those trying to spot me — bottom row, blue dress, second from the right.
It was one of those unexpected moments that makes you think about where life takes you, the experiences that shape you, and how they can eventually connect to the work you are doing today.
It has also been a busy and meaningful week for the I Have Resolve Foundation. We delivered resources to three schools, and I now have meetings arranged with four more schools that are next on our Classroom of Resolve list.
At the same time, our Community of Resolve work has me visiting retirement and community settings, creating opportunities for connection, participation and belonging.
There is something especially meaningful about seeing our work reach across generations — from students in classrooms to older adults in our communities. Different ages, different needs, but all connected to our mission of advancing inclusion, reducing social isolation, and creating opportunities for everyone to thrive.
Standing in that school today and seeing a much younger version of myself on the wall made this week feel just a little more special.

I’m honoured to be joining the 10th Defeat Duchenne Canada Family Forum in Halifax this October as a speaker.
This is an especially meaningful opportunity for me. Duchenne has shaped so much of my life, our family’s story, and ultimately the work we do today through the I Have Resolve Foundation.
Jason’s words — “Whatever happens, Mom, I have resolve” — continue to guide everything we do. I’m grateful for the opportunity to share some of our journey, what we learned along the way, and how Jason’s legacy continues to inspire our work to create greater understanding, inclusion and connection.
I’m looking forward to being in Halifax, reconnecting with the Duchenne community, meeting families from across Canada, and being part of some very important conversations.
Thank you Defeat Duchenne Canada for the opportunity to be part of this year’s Family Forum.

A huge thank you to Greg and Jody of Greg Coman Photographyfor doing such a wonderful job capturing these special moments for us.
Here’s a first look — with more photos to come!
