GREEN BAY PRESS GAZETTE: UW-Green Bay grad defied the odds, overcame poverty and disability
It's graduation season. Many people with disabilities will cross the stage overcoming tremendous odds. That is the case for one UW-Green Bay alum. Christopher not only overcame multiple disabilities, he also overcame poverty. Growing up, his mother was a strong advocate for him and made sure to focus on what he could do. As he got older, his self-determination and self-advocacy led him to some amazing opportunities.
