While running through the streets of Philadelphia, Anne's mission caught up with her. Dispelling the belief that those currently experiencing homelessness don't have what it takes to be runners, she founded Backonmyfeet.org, an expanding model that addresses this issue with empathy, accountability and fresh sneakers. With chapters forming around the country, everyone will have the chance to run in the right direction, empowering them to change their perceptions of themselves and what is possible. Extend the conversation and expand on ideas with Anne Mahlum: join their Opal Brainstorm at tedxaustin.ouropal.com/brainstorms/303?direct_sign… In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
