Bitmoji in the Disability Community

I’m sure most of you listening have created or seem a Bitmoji. But did you know there is NO disability representation? My guest today, Caitlin Goerlich is looking to change that.

After being paralyzed from the waist down due to complications in surgeries for kyphoscoliosis at the age of three, Caitlin Goerlich went on to be an adaptive athlete, motivational speaker, YouTuber, and advocate for people with disabilities. Goerlich started a campaign called #InclusiveBimojis in 2019 to try and get Bitmoji to add disability options to their app so people with disabilities can better represent themselves.
