Women on Wheels (W.O.W.): a unique sisterhood of women living life to its fullest. Choosing not to sit still wishing for things to happen, we actively participate in creating change; tackling daily obstacles and challenges with inner courage, backbone and determination. Strengthened by our individual and shared life experiences, we continue to move forward.

Our group meets weekly to discuss various topics such as dating and sexuality, self-image, relationships with family, partners and friends, education, independence, co-dependence, self-advocacy, and dis/ability as identity.

If you are a woman (sorry, no guys allowed) interested in joining our group, please send an email to: WomenOnWheelsNYC@gmail.com with the subject “W.O.W.”
