Webinar: Men and Aging with Paralysis

Tuesday, June 29, at 3:00 PM ET

Register for the webinar.

The National Paralysis Resource Center is hosting a webinar entitled “Men and Aging with Paralysis" to provide an in-depth exploration of the impacts of the aging process and an understanding that men living with paralysis are not alone in facing the changes associated with growing older. 

This webinar will feature a panel discussion among four men living with paralysis who will share their personal experiences with aging as well as provide perspective and advice. Topics to be covered include the physical changes brought on by aging, such as weight gain, sexual health issues, and pain, as well as the emotional impacts, including increased isolation, decreased self-worth, and the transition to retirement. Strategies and resources for addressing the challenges of aging with paralysis will also be presented to empower men to maintain their health and quality of life as they age.


ACL funds the Paralysis Resource Center to provide comprehensive information for people living with spinal cord injury, paralysis and mobility-related disabilities and their support networks. Resources include information and referral by phone and email in multiple languages including Spanish; a peer and family support mentoring program; a military and veterans program; multicultural outreach services; quality of life grants; and a national website.
