My Story…
For almost 36 years, I have counselled individuals and families of those who have experienced traumatic spinal cord injuries, as well as people with other physical disabilities as a Peer Support Specialist with SCI BC. Over the years I have also helped throughout Victoria and South Vancouver Island in all areas of community living to enhance the independence, self-reliance, and full community participation of people living with physical disabilities. I had a 20-year obsession with wheelchair sports. Since 1984 I participated in competitive Volleyball, Basketball, Athletics (javelin, shot-put, and discus), Weightlifting and Racquetball. In 1990 I took top spot in the National ‘B’ Division in Wheelchair Racquetball and retired from competitive sport in 1997 holding 3rd place in the National ‘A’ Division. I went on to be a full time Dad with my 4 children and served as a foster parent for over 12 years, fostering more than 40 children over that time.
Description
I'm helping people with spinal cord injury adjust, adapt, and thrive by fundraising for Spinal Cord Injury BC. Can you help us reach our team goal of raising $75,000?
