Ms. Wheelchair VA on WRIC TV-8
Sheltering Arms has been ALL OVER the TV this month. The third airing of The Power to Overcome documentary was this past weekend on channel 6. Also, Sheltering Arms superstar patient Jamaal Williams was on channel 6 last week talking about the documentary and his recovery from stroke. Tomorrow morning, there will once again be talk of Sheltering Arms on the television!
Ms. Wheelchair Virginia, Joan Manley of Lexington (seen to the right), will appear for a live interview on WRIC TV-8 during the 9 a.m. hour tomorrow. She’ll be talking about, among other things, the reason she’s in town. Ms. Manley is one of our honored guests at tonight’s Celebration of the Power to Overcome gala at the Jefferson Hotel.
Ms. Manley knows all too well what it takes to overcome disability. She is a spinal cord injury quadriplegic due to an automobile accident. She works with numerous organizations, boards, and is a part-time Advocacy Specialist with VAIL Center for Independent Living. She speaks regularly for local groups about living with a disability while promoting accessibility for all in her community.
Don’t miss her appearance!
