June of 2022: Realizing the need for services for children of all abilities within the Muslim community, a few of us collaborated to be change makers in our community. Most of us had backgrounds in the fields of education, disabilities, and mental health. Some of us were directly working in arenas where we served children of all abilities in various capacities. And what was once an idea and a dream began to become a reality—Safeena Foundation was born.
