“l’m so exited to be able to introduce adaptive athletes and resources to the Culver City community. Most people haven’t engaged with Amputees, let alone those with other disabilities. Sports is an easy way to get to know amputees and approach them with questions you may have. Sports is also a way to level the playing field for all athletes involved Los Angeles will be hosting their first Paralympic Games in 2028. This film is a good starting point to introduce you to the power of sports.” - Marci Krown
