Ataxia Telangiectasia

● The kids that get A-T have muscular dystrophy and multiple sclerosis.

● They also are usually confined to a wheelchair by the age of 10 and they rarely live to see their 20th birthday.

Problem

Trying to get people aware of Ataxia Telangiectasia A-T. (uh-tax-e-uh Tell-ain-g-eck-tas-e-uh)

(Imagine... qllfour children have A-T)

Beliefs

My beliefs are that people should know about A-T and how they can help. My other belief is that there is a cure we just have to find it.

(She may be small but herhope is big)

Issue

A-T (no cure)

Solution

My solution or goal is to get people aware

of A-T by doing public speeches, people

could come and listen to my speech and

then know how hard it is for families to go

through this.

(We know A-T is

hard, but maybe

it doesn’t have

to be)

Solution

A Website, to explain what A-T is.

Youtube, because it’s very popular and

effective.

Assemblies, because everybody even kids

need to be aware.

(A-T changes how

you look at things)
