IDEAL-WAY was founded by Robert Pio Hajjar, born with Down syndrome.
Rob believes that persons with Down syndrome, Autism, etc., can write poetry as good as, or better than, mainstream individuals, in any style, on any subject.
Rob knows that his intellectually disabled peers are as deserving of multi-media publicity and world-class competition judging as anybody else.
We anticipate hundreds of entries from individuals with Down syndrome, Autism, etc. throughout Canada.
