Amanda Longwell

Amanda works tirelessly to ensure her three children have every opportunity for success in school and life in general. Her fight is most critical for her youngest daughter, Tori, who has Down Syndrome. Since birth, Amanda learned Tori would be faced with challenges – especially within the educational system. She has done extensive research and worked with her community leaders to promote equitable and inclusive education for Tori and all other children living with disabilities. She speaks to raise awareness and advocate for change within her school, district, state and legislature. She served on the Utah Education Advisory Panel and is excited to serve as a board member of the DLC to continue pursuing change.
