In this episode of Driven by Purpose, Isaac, Evan, and Mike spotlight the Los Angeles Chargers for getting accessibility right. After visiting Chargers training camp with Evan’s daughter Sydney, who is nonverbal and uses an AAC communication device, Evan shares how the organization, staff, and players created an experience that made his entire family feel welcomed, respected, and included.
