Dick Hoyt
Disability Activist
Dick’s son, Rick was born in 1962 as a spastic quadriplegic with cerebral palsy and as a non-speaking person; but despite these disabilities, Rick’s mind and spirit have always been strong. His family supported his quest for independence and inclusion in community, sports, education and the workplace, culminating with his graduation from Boston University. Through his presentation, Dick shares his lifelong commitment to changing attitudes and educating others on the world of disabilities. He and his family have seen an impact from their efforts in the area of public attitude toward people with disabilities.
