MEET JUSTIN - THE INSPIRATION FOR OUR WEBSITE

To know him is to love him . . .

Justin and his cousin Kelly at the annual Snowflake Ball 2003.

Virginia Voices in Action parent support group for people with disabilities was inspired by our group coordinator's love and devotion to her grandson Justin who has a disability. This is Justin's special page where we share recent news, events and accomplishments in Justin's very full and active life.

We hope you are inspired by Justin's love, his zest for life and the many people who have been touched by Justin as he moves with gentleness and grace through their lives.
