Come join us for a panel discussion with Mary Shea, Cindy Smith, Sarah Leonard, Josh Anderson, and Jim Black, moderated by Jessica Presperin Pedersen. Mary, Cindy, and Sarah are therapists with several years of experience recommending rigid wheelchairs. Josh and Jim have a long history of using and promoting manual wheelchairs and will discuss their experiences and perceptions as riders in various fame styles. This lively discussion will be open for input from the audience. We hope this will generate stimulating conversation about rigid wheelchairs.
