Pueblo mom starts new inclusive swim program for people with special needs
PUEBLO, Colo. (KRDO) -- A Pueblo mom is taking action to support people with disabilities in the community after she experienced too many barriers with her own son.
Elizabeth Harmes is the mom to 4-year-old Remington who is autistic and nonverbal. Recently Harmes started a special needs sensory swim program that’s tailored for people of all ages with special needs.
The program is hosted by Special Needs Community Connections, a nonprofit that Harmes launched in October, and runs every Friday and Saturday between 1-3 p.m. in the Pueblo Regional Center’s heated therapy pool.
For the full story, head to our news partners at The Pueblo Chieftain.
