Dave and Mary Jane Moore started a hip hop class in Vancouver for young adults with developmental disabilities. The class, held at the Sons of Norway Lodge, allows students and parents to learn hip hop choreographies and perform them in the community.
“It’s a real good social outlet. It’s real difficult sometimes for kids with intellectual disabilities to make friends and to develop those friendships,”  Mary Jane Moore. “This is a good avenue for them to have that social interaction and practice, you know, being friends and having fun together.”
