Thanks to her many supporters and advocates, Madeline Stuart is going to be participating in New York Fashion week as a model.

Stuart is an 18 year old model who happens to also have down syndrome. She has been a long time advocate for people with disabilities and hopes to use her platform to bring awareness to the treatment of disabled people and how they are just like everyone else.

The model is setting new heights and taking the fashion world by storm with her determination and charisma and can be expected to model in the up coming fashion week in NYC.
