It all started with a broken ankle in 2000. While using a wheelchair, I had a chance to see how inaccessible our accessible society really is. This was also an opportunity to experience how uneducated and ill-informed the public is regarding people with special needs. In the spring of 2001, I visited a presentation, just to see what ATOU was all about. As they say, "The rest is history." The kids with whom we have shared the program and the volunteers with whom I work, have added so much to my life. It is a privilege to be part of this worthwhile program. |
