Our Mission
To be a guiding light, lighting the pathway forward by providing resources and emotional support to individuals diagnosed with a life-long disability, their family and friends.
VISION: Creating a world in which the permanently disabled and their 'circle of influence' (family/friends) are empowered.
Ways We Help
Relationships, careers and passions are all affected by a life-threatening illness and/or traumatic injury. To find the motivation to overcome trauma we must eliminate the distracting effects of said trauma.
Rising Star - Individuals living with a disability
Light Walker - Family/Friend/Caregiver of a person living with a disability
Through our classes we teach new perspectives, clear communication and the importance of advocacy. We offer a safe place for people to share experiences, gain powerful knowledge and gain lots of community support.
After joining in on our classes, our Rising Stars are encouraged to partner with one of the many Light Walkers also in attendance. Who has knowledge of your disability specifically and will guide you through the new life you now lead.
Our classes teach about the various factors in caregiving such as how to talk to doctors to get them to focus on working as a team, what important resources to use and when to access them, and how to give yourself the care you need to be a good caregiver. All of this is taught through our years of our own experience.
Once you attend our classes you will be given access to all the resources available in our network, giving you the tools to be a Light Walker to any and all Rising Stars.
Financial Resources
True Cost of Disability
Helping people handle the various aspects of a lifelong disability such as how to find a new passion, how to first apply for our financial resources and where to go to start rebuilding family relationships.
​
Disabilities can consume your entire life. Hospital visits, unexpected medical billing, therapy, uncomfortable orthotics, annual applications, depending on others for assistance.
​
This consumption can mean life or death of someone's entire emotional esteem long with their family and friends. There are multiple costs of dealing with a disability, Any disability is a heavy weight to bare financially, mentally, and emotionally. This weight can be felt by all involved.
Emotional Relationships
Transforming Perspectives
No one is taught how to handle a lifelong disability, the financial burden or how your passions can be taken away so quickly.
Family and friends don't know what to say or how to relate anymore.
Therefore, a disability can be viewed as the death of a loved one and their rebirth.
What do you say to your son or daughter after they no longer have the ability to pursue their passions? Can you help? How do you help? Our classes answer these questions.
We help you see every traumatic disability as an opportunity for deeper connections and new passions. Using communication and alternative points of view we help each other see the possibilities.
