Champion Your Future Conference
Too often FV Indiana hears from our members about how disappointed they were that they missed an important training or resource because the information was not shared with them. In an effort to address this we ask that each of you share the following with interested families and the professionals that serve them.
In particular if you could share this with ANY middle and high school teachers that would be very helpful. Two of FV Indiana's leaders will be presenting at this event so, plan to say hello!

At the age of 14, Mike dreamed of a career in sports. A gunshot wound to the chest challenged his dreams. He would never walk again. After months of physical therapy, he began playing basketball from his wheelchair and went on to become a standout athlete.
