Back to Episodesep. 41 | Two-Time Quadriplegic? Football Player to Community Change Maker
Description
Today is the 30th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Why is this important? Listen in as I chat with JR Harding, a 6’5” football player who had TWO spinal cord injuries causing him to become a quadriplegic. Today he has a doctorate of education, is a faculty member at FSU College of Business & serves on the Delta Airlines Disability Advisory Board. He is a two-time US Presidential Appointee & a seven- time Florida Gubernatorial Appointee, helping shape public policy. He shares his story, the impact of the ADA on things like quality of life & travel & how we can better connect with people with disabilities.
