NoPity

NoPity has been established to provide Handicapable individuals the necessary tools for blossoming into, and maintaining, a proactive and productive life in today’s able-bodied society. We focus on effortless living for everyone, but speak from the perspective of a wheelchair.

While working one-on-one, or in a group setting, we aim to show all individuals dealing with a challenge that there is in fact a light at the end of the tunnel. No matter what hand you were dealt, everyone is capable of living his or her dream. It’s a choice to look at a challenge as a life limiting burden or a barrier. NoPity aims to create awareness for all people with our Effortless Living publications and workshops. Our mission is to help better one neighborhood at a time by inspiring individuals to rise to the occasion.

NoPity offers consultation in areas such as:

Empowerment: Be inspired to rise to the occasion no matter what challenges you’re faced with. Multiple workshops and seminars are available to educate and inspire children to be their own advocate.

Effortless Travel: Our publications include a series called "Off the Beaten Track". This series is dedicated to effortless travel for all people, especially those who have physical limitations. It is not limited to handicapable individuals, but was created for everyone who enjoys traveling without a hitch! This guide is perfect for vacationers who prefer to take the path less traveled, parents with kids in strollers, people who walk a little slower, or those who enjoy a uniquely effortless experience.

Effortless Gardening: Our House of Hope Garden is completely equipped with effortless gardens. Each raised garden bed was designed to give access to children and adults while seated in wheelchairs. Roll around stations are available in our garden to promote empowerment and independence. We offer educational workshops for our “Little Sprouts” that aim to ignite a sense of self and confidence that will last a lifetime. Art Therapy workshops have been implemented to provide a positive outlet for coping with the waves of life. With the help of art and nature we will show our Sprouts that everything is possible, no matter what hand we were dealt.

Transition Coach: For all individuals, maturing from child to adulthood is a trying time. Handicapable teens are faced with additional concerns while journeying toward independence. Acting as a mentor, I will guide both parent and child through the various stages of transition.
