Founder

Marla Hamann

TARS was founded out of love and determination after my daughter Emma was born with a rare syndrome. As a parent, I felt compelled to research and understand her condition, especially since it was unfamiliar to many. My mission is to raise awareness and educate others to prevent bullying and foster understanding. Together, we can create a more inclusive world for children like Emma.
