Gary Karp will speak to occupational and physical therapy students on Friday, April 4, 2008 from 10 a.m. to noon in the Christel DeHaan Fine Arts Center, Ruth Lilly Performance Hall at the University of Indianapolis. This event is free and open to the public.
From http://www.garykarpspeaks.com/speaking.html
Gary Karp is an internationally recognized public speaker, corporate trainer, facilitator, author, and editor.
He has been living — fully — with a T12 spinal cord injury since 1973
when he was injured in a fall from a tree at the age of eighteen.
For his unique and extensive contributions to disability awareness, in
2007 Gary was inducted into the Spinal Cord Injury Hall of Fame as a
disability educator.
Since his injury, Gary has earned a graduate degree in architecture,
worked for eleven years in the presentation graphics industry as a
designer and production manager, then began providing ergonomics
training and consultation services to companies in the San Francisco
Bay Area where he lives with his wife Paula and their yellow Labrador
Retriever, Nava Leah.
A very highly-regarded speaker, Gary is sponsored in part by the
Christopher & Dana Reeve Paralysis Resource Center, which funds his
speaking in rehabilitation settings and to university students of
physical and occupational therapy.
As a corporate trainer on disability and employment Gary makes the
business case for working with employees with disabilities. He creates
a safe and interactive environment to discuss what some find an
uncomfortable topic — and in the process helps bring workplace culture
up to speed on the dramatic emergence of people with disabilities — as
candidates, and an existing employee's capacity to stay on the job or
return more efficiently.
