Empower Pathways : Spring series
February through May 2025
The Spring Series is made up of several day events throughout the Northeast including a “Family Dinner” cooking experience, an opportunity to try adaptive sports, a day of art at the Museum of Fine Arts (followed by a trip through Boston to a brewery), an adaptive ski day, and an urban adventure in Manhattan.
These programs are open to anyone with a spinal cord injury and are a great way to get a taste of the Empower SCI magic.
**Cost of most Pathways Programs is $25 per person to cover administrative fees associated with programming, but please apply if you are interested as scholarships are available.
