Stephanie Speaks about Shannon
Posted: April 2, 2007 | News Bites Home

On March 21st, Lynn's niece Stephanie made a special presentation at a workshop entitled "The Importance of Belonging", where Steph talked about her life as someone with Special Needs and about her involvement with FBorFW.

Stephanie is the model for the character Shannon Lake, and Steph worked closely with Lynn to develop Shannon and make sure that the strips Lynn draws are true-to-life for people with developmental disabilities.

Lynn joined Stephanie for part of her presentation. The two of them are pictured below. For more information about Steph and Shannon Lake, visit our Introducing Shannon Lake feature.
