On this episode of Wednesdays with Wheels, I’m joined by my good friend Heather, who’s a strong voice in the disability community. We’re talking about something that’s hitting way too close to home lately—New York State’s CdPAP program. This program was supposed to help folks with disabilities get the in-home care they need to live independently, but now the state is making it harder than ever to access.
Heather breaks it all down: what’s changed, why it’s such a problem, and how it’s affecting both the people who need care and the caregivers who help them live full, independent lives. It’s a conversation we need to be having.
If you or someone you love relies on this kind of support, or if you just want to understand what’s really going on, tune in—you won’t want to miss this one.
In this inspiring episode of “Wednesdays with Wheels,” we talk with Tom Turner, the author of “Beyond the Bridge: The 10 Lessons I’ve Learned While Being Disabled.” Tom shares his incredible journey of living with spina bifida and the profound insights he has gained along the way. We delve into his book, exploring the challenges and triumphs that have shaped his life. Join us as Tom discusses the importance of resilience, the power of community, and the lessons that can help us all navigate life’s obstacles. This is an episode filled with hope, wisdom, and the spirit of overcoming adversity.
In this episode, I sit down with Steve Ball, one of the founding members of the incredible local band, Dogs for A Cause. This group of talented musicians plays gigs around town, raising money for various charities, all without taking a dime for themselves. Tune in to hear about their inspiring journey and the impact they’re making in our community! Plus, don’t miss their upcoming event this Saturday night at Russell Station in Greece, NY. For more details, check out their social media or local event listings.
How does that look? Let me know if there’s anything else you’d like to add or adjust!
