experience of growing up with a craniofacial difference to the programs she helps implement for the individuals and families myFace serves.\u00a0 She was born with a cleft lip, a hearing loss in both ears and no vision in her left eye.\u00a0 She has had several surgeries and was teased and excluded growing up.\u00a0 It wasn\u2019t until she was in her early twenties and joined a support group for teens and adults with facial differences that she saw the incredible value of being part of a community of people who could understand what she was going through.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dina created\u00a0 the Adult Support Group when she joined myFace in 2014 because she wants everyone with a facial difference to know that they have a voice and they are not alone on this journey.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dina shares, \u201cIn this group, members share their own stories, their fears, concerns and accomplishments.\u00a0 With the support of the group, they are empowered to pursue their goals, establish relationships and help others.\u00a0 It is amazing to witness the transformation that takes place as they discover their power.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69dbe39343aed\" data-id=\"69dbe39343aed\"
