Join MobilityWorks at the 2018 New York Metro Abilities Expo


The Abilities Expo has been a one stop shop for all things accessible for nearly 40 years. The newest technologies and solutions are all available together under one roof for people with disabilities, veterans, seniors, and their families.

MobilityWorks is excited to be participating in this year’s Abilities Expo, from May 4th-6th at the New Jersey Convention & Expo Center. We will have Certified Mobility Consultants from our locations in Highland Park, Farmingdale, East Hartford, Cinnaminson, Allentown, Woodbury, Bear, and Norristown. They will be in booth #1113 to answer any questions about accessible vehicles and adaptive equipment.

A few of the Events that will be at the 2018 New York Abilities Expo:

  • Meet Micah Fowler Star of ABC’s Speechless (Saturday May 5th 11:20am-12pm)- Attend a Q&A session followed by a meet and greet with the character “JJ” from the show Speechless, who refuse to let Cerebral Palsy define him.
  • Wheelchair Ballroom Dancing with Cheryl Angelelli (Sunday May 6th from 12-12:30)- See a performance from Cheryl Angelelli, a 4-time Paralympic Medalist and Swimming World-Record Holder. She and her partner are one of the top wheelchair ballroom dancing couples in the world.
  • Free Acupressure (Daily) – Free 15-20 minute sessions will expose you to the benefits of acupressure, similar to acupuncture but without the needles.
  • Adaptive Climbing Wall (Daily)- Mark Wellman is the first paraplegic to have summited El Captain and Half Dome in Yosemite and is a former Paralympian and park ranger. He will help you learn techniques and use adaptive equipment to enjoy the exciting sport of rock climbing.
