254) Let's Get Educated Regarding the Needs of the Disabled
Description
In this episode I am speaking with Martha Varela who is the Executive Director of the Paralyzed Veterans of America (PVA). Martha has been on the podcast in the past to talk about the Better With Horses Program that she participated in at the Horse Project with other paralyzed women veterans in the spring.
Well the second round took place a couple weeks ago and Martha and I were teamed up to work with one another over several days. In this episode, we talk about how great the program is and how much they loved it. But we also talk about how important it is to get educated regarding the needs of the disabled to ensure ease, joy and a safe environment.
Listen to our conversation and become educated on how challenging it is to be disabled and in a wheelchair, so we can all become advocates for our paralyzed veterans who sacrificed so much for us.
