Hi, I am Lauren Potter.

You might know me as Becky Jackson on the TV series "Glee".

This is my mom, Robin.
0:12 - 0:17

– And we're joining AbilityPath.org to disable bullying.

When you first meet Lauren, you may just see her disability...
0:20 - 0:22

but it is not what defines her.
0:22 - 0:26

Growing up, Lauren was unfortunately reminded of her differences
0:26 - 0:29

because of mean-spirited jokes, pranks and name calling.
0:29 - 0:34

The fact is, kids with special needs are more likely to be bullied than any other students.
0:34 - 0:38

– That's just not OK, but it happens every day.
0:38 - 0:43

My mom and I are taking action to disable bullying.
0:43 - 0:45

Will you?
0:45 - 0:48

– Lauren and I are proud to be partnering with AbilityPath.org,
0:48 - 0:53

so our kids go from being statistics to being a part of the solution.
0:53 - 0:57

There is something we can all do to say "enough is enough".
0:57 - 1:01

– Let's give kids with special needs a voice.
