Jordan Rosenzweig

Program Facilitator & disability advocate

My experience with disabilities started at a very young age. My eldest cousin was born with frontal lobe epilepsy and experienced severe siezures. As I was very close with my cousins, aunt and uncle, i spent quite a bit of time there growing up. My mother also suffers from Multiple sclerosis and as a teen I spent a lot time assisting her in her daily life. These experiences allowed me to view disabilities as a normal, everyday thing and helped me to develop a deep compassion to help those in need. In 2014, I moved to Calgary from Toronto and found work helping a quadriplegic gentleman to go swimming at Vecova, do stretching and other assited living scenarios. Before his accident he was a professional support worker and he mentored me for 2 years in all areas of disabilities. Since then John and myself have been building our business privately and recently decided we wanted to bring it to anyone who wants to join us. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. Thank you for your time.
