Morgan’s Studio, a new initiative under the Morgan’s umbrella, has launched with the new Inclusion Unlimited series on YouTube.
The studio is part of Morgan’s, the umbrella organisation behind Morgan’s Wonderland in San Antonio, Texas – the world’s first theme park designed and built for people with special needs.
Inclusion Unlimited will feature various episodes on the Morgan’s YouTube channel. The first can be seen below.
These are aimed at creating a more inclusive space in the media landscape by highlighting the struggles, needs and successes of people with disabilities.
“The Inclusion Unlimited segments produced by Morgan’s Studio are a wonderful opportunity for people to understand the importance of accessibility and inclusion,” said Brent Fields, CEO of Morgan’s.
“This will help cultivate an inclusive mindset among audiences around the world.”
Highlighting the importance of accessibility
Morgan’s founder and CEO Gordon Hartman said: “This is something we’ve long envisioned, and now is the right time to bring it to life.
“We’re fortunate to have a seasoned journalist leading this initiative to educate, inspire, and encourage others to join us in creating a more inclusive world for people with disabilities.”
Leslie Mouton, an Emmy Award-winning journalist, is the host of Inclusion Unlimited and serves as creative media director for Morgan’s.
“I’m a storyteller, and at Morgan’s, we have many great stories to share,” she said.
“Our hope is that the public embraces our efforts to help build a world where everyone, regardless of ability, feels valued and included.”
Inclusion Unlimited will offer episodes such as:
- Accessible Moments with Sharon Newhardt, director of inclusion and culture at Morgan’s.
- Big Perspectives from Little Person Ashley Rocha, who has spent more than seven years working at Morgan’s Wonderland.
- Autistics in Cars: Driven by Passions, a collaboration between Morgan’s Studio and autism nonprofit Spectrum Fusion’s media team.
- Jada’s Journey with Jada Cano, who has been involved with Morgan’s Sports since the age of five.
“The Morgan’s Marketing team currently produce all the segments,” said Mary Martinez Worth, chief marketing officer for Morgan’s.
“We want people to watch, like, and subscribe to Morgan’s YouTube channel. In time, we’d like to grow this into a revenue source to help support all our nonprofits.”
Late last year, Morgan’s launched the Morgan’s Inclusion Institute, which has now started a formal search for its first president.
