Allison Thompkins, PhD, MIT grad, Easterseals Massachusetts Board member, and former AT client has published a book titled 'Spirituality Is for Every Body: 8 Accessible, Inclusive Ways to Connect with the Divine When Living with Disability'.
Allison shared, "I hope my book helps people, regardless of disability status, live more joyful and fulfilling lives, inspires people to dream huge dreams, and gives people the tools necessary to realize those dreams. My truest wish is that my book provides a foundation and framework for how to engage in an open, honest, and loving discussion about disability through a spiritual lens." Allison is a member of our Board of Directors and is generously donating a portion of the proceeds from the sale of her new book to ESMA. Click to purchase the book.
