S.M.A.C. - Start Making Abilities Count

SMAC experience - changing one mind and one heart at a time
to start making abilities count

Lea Nicholas has worked in a training capacity for many years. Possessing an innate ability to connect with people, she quickly assess a situation and concisely articulates a complicated issue.

Always passionate regarding human rights, Lea fervently asserts those beliefs on behalf of those unable or unwilling to do so. Her gifts of well-presented arguments, backed with research, result in many a "win" for the underdog. Always willing to stand up for herself and others, she believes that attitude is the key to solving many of life's problems.

If one is willing to listen, to truly hear and perhaps "walk a mile in someone else's shoes" one can be a more accepting, compassionate person. Lea strongly believes all of us, no matter what our circumstances, have the right and the responsibility to respect and inclusion.

It is our intention to transform attitudes and serve our community through advocating, listening, sharing, coaching, and teaching. We do this with integrity, honesty, and passion. Our vision is the creation of a compassionate and inclusive society.

We talk from the heart and from real life.

"Being SMAC "ed" was definitely an experience that will not be soon forgotten. [The] presentation compels a person to think outside the box, to look around with eyes wide open instead of half shut. The information is provided in a light atmosphere and there are thought provoking exercises, designed to make a person think about walking in another's shoes . . . The SMAC Experience makes us think, makes us comprehend and makes us appreciate all of our abilities, rather than focusing on the "dis." We really enjoyed it!"
