Presented by Jewish Family Service to celebrate 100 years of service.
The JFS Disability Services Alexander Institute for Inclusion works to foster a community that includes all individuals by striving to eliminate the stigma associated with disabilities. Jewish Family Service is proud to have been selected as the host city organizer of ReelAbilities: Houston Disabilities Film Festival 2013.
ReelAbilities is the largest film festival in the nation committed to promoting appreciation and awareness of the lives, stories and artistic expressions of people with various disabilities. The festival will present award winning films by and about people with disabilities in multiple locations throughout the city. Post-screening discussions and other engaging programs will bring together our community to explore, discuss, embrace, and celebrate the diversity of our shared human experience. The Institute for Rehabilitation and Research (TIRR Memorial Hermann) will serve as the lead sponsor of this new cultural event in Houston’s arts and human services arena.
