EVENT RECAP: 15th Annual Medical Fitness and Healthcare Conference

Suzanne Gray and Courtney DePaulo returned from sunny Florida where they presented at the Medical Fitness Association Conference on Fitness Programming for Youth with Autism Spectrum Disorders. They had a great audience and the attendees, who were from all over the country, were very receptive to our ideas for fitness training. The hope was for everyone to be able to take something away from their presentation to incorporate in to their work with this extraordinary population!
