Abilities Expo- San Jose

Ever since I was a kid I looked forward to going to the Abilities Expo. The Abilities Expo is a fun and resourceful event that attracts many people whether they be people with disabilities, people working in the field of special populations, or those that are just curious about what is out there.

This is a 3 day weekend event where people can find resources like the newest wheelchairs, get medical supplies, find out about local adapted sports programs, learn about agencies that advocate for people with disabilities, look at some assistive technology, watch some AMAZING demo's, and meet some incredible people who contribute to the disability community.

This year the local Abilities Expo for the northern California region will be held at the Mc Enery Convention Center in San Jose, CA, November 16th-18th.

I will be there this year working at the Colours Wheelchairs booth and also doing a fun Wheelchair Lacrosse Demo. See you there!
