“Going to Bat for Kids” was commissioned by the Florida Council for Exceptional Children’s 67th Annual Conference in St Petersburg, Florida. The image depicts an EC Teacher knocking balls out of the park. The balls she has knocked out of the park are “poverty”, “disabilities” and “child abuse”. Other people in the community stand on deck preparing to knock a few balls out of the park themselves, Firemen, Police Officers, Nurses, Parents and Mentors! Are you prepared to take a few swings at the issues that stand in the way of our children? Hidden Words… “Love, Care. Hope and Protect”
