Since joining Best Buddies at Castle View High School in 2017, Shivam Talwar has been an incredible force of positivity and inclusion. His dedication and passion were recognized in 2022 when he was named Colorado's first State Ambassador! 🚀 This summer, Shivam, along with his mom, Rashmi, and 20 others from Colorado, attended the 35th Annual Best Buddies Leadership Conference at Indiana University. With over 2,000 participants, including many with physical or intellectual disabilities, it was an unforgettable celebration of abilities and inclusion. 🎉 Participants enjoyed motivational speeches, lively discussions, the Inclusion Olympics, and public speaking workshops. The highlight of the event? Shivam was one of five participants chosen to speak at the closing ceremony! He brought the crowd to their feet with his inspiring story, sharing his journey, friendships, and his dream of working at Colorado Public Radio. 🎙️ Shivam’s first buddy, 2022 CV graduate Shayla Levine, was there too, representing her New York College Chapter. Their reunion was full of emotions as Shayla was moved to tears by Shivam's powerful speech. 💙 Best Buddies is an international program dedicated to fostering one-to-one friendships for people with disabilities with a mission of spreading inclusion. There are currently two Best Buddies chapters in Douglas County School District at Castle View and Ponderosa High School. With programs ranging from birth through adulthood, there is a place for everyone at Best Buddies. If you are interested in joining or starting a chapter, please contact Katie Bishop at KatieBishop@bestbuddies.org
