Unified Talks: Connections with Katrina and Aidan

We’re back in Minnesota for this episode of Unified Talks! Minnetonka High School seniors Katrina and Aidan are here to talk about what it’s like to connect with a cause. Our founder Eunice Kennedy Shriver was inspired to create Special Olympics after seeing how powerful it was for her sister when she played sports. Using Special Olympics as a personal example, Katrina and Aidan explore how we form good connections with causes we care about.
