IMPACT

GLASA has demonstrated leadership on a local, regional and national level.

“It can be a very lonely feeling when you think that no one you know really understands how you feel or what you are going through. Those feelings are erased when you go to the GLASA programs. What GLASA first did for me was improve my state of mind. Now when I go to GLASA programs, I’m no longer searching for inclusion but to be competitive in whatever sport I’m participating in.”

“Track has given me the chance to shoot for higher goals. It has taught me to strive for better and be the best that I can be. It has also made a dream of mine feel much more possible: I am training at the University of Illinois Paralympic Wheelchair Track Training Center, attending college and working toward making the Paralympic Team USA.”
