ARE YOU A REFUGEE OR IMMIGRANT WITH AN ACQUIRED DISABILITY?

Our Heart Speaks (OHS) is collecting powerful personal stories that highlight the strength, courage, and humanity of individuals living with visible or invisible disabilities, including refugees and immigrants navigating displacement, healing and their medical course. If you have found meaning and purpose despite the real challenges you may have faced with health and rehabilitation, discrimination or rebuilding your life, we believe that your journey deserves to be heard – with dignity and respect.
