People with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) often navigate stereotypes and societal hurdles that can impact personal autonomy and community participation.
Rock the Runway is designed to challenge these perceptions by centering models with IDD in an environment that celebrates their unique perspectives.
Leading up to the event, each model chooses their own clothing and styles from The Arc Thrift Stores. This focus on self-expression helps shift the conversation away from outdated prejudice and toward a genuine appreciation for each individual. When our models walk the runway, they have the space to be themselves and share their independence with a supportive audience.
