Real Stories, Real Impact

Meet Pledge!

At 8 a.m., Pledge’s Trillium Ultimate Living Assistant, or TULA, powers on. Her day is in full view: which caregiver is coming, when therapy starts and whether she'll be starting a new project at her local pottery studio.

With support built around her, her mom says Pledge has “grown in leaps and bounds.” She's painting horses, finding a community where she feels she belongs and telling her family exactly what she wants to do. See how Pledge is charting her own life.
