Create more inclusive magazines by ensuring that girls with disabilties are included in each issue of American Girl and Discovery Girl Magazines.
Why is this important?
Magazines that target tween girls have an obligation to ensure the images they present are positive, balanced and honest. According to the 2010 US Census Bureau, approximately 5.2 million children under the age of 15 have a disability. American Girl and Discovery Girl magazines need to increase representation of girls with disabilties not just as a 'special feature'-but as part of every issue.
