Bibbs has gotten support from Courageous Faces Foundation, a nonprofit organization that has given confidence to individuals like Reggie who are remarkably different.
"The Foundation's belief is that all people are people first and foremost, and some just happen to have intellectual or physical disabilities, differences or special needs, due to genetics, injuries, traumatic events, illness or other causes," the organization states on its website.

The group also tells of a heartbreaking time in which Reggie spent the majority of his life in the shadows, out of the stares or comments of the outside world.
Using Reggie's story, Courageous Faces Foundation has made Reggie feel more accepted, and if anyone still didn't understand Reggie's condition, Bibbs has offered people to just ask.
Bibbs' Just Ask! Foundation aims to help people understand his condition.
