4/5/2012 4:05:02 PM

AYSO's VIP Program attended its first Abilities Expo this past weekend, March 30 - April 1, and introduced VIP to hundreds of children and adults with disabilities.

"What an upbeat, fun and stimulating event for the greater Los Angeles community," said Steve Poretzky, Section 10 VIP Administrator. "It was a perfect venue and demographic for publicizing and recruiting for the VIP Program."

The Abilities Expo is a nationwide event that has been dedicated to improving the lives of those with disabilities for the past three decades. The expo includes compelling workshops, sports and dance performances, and a wide variety of exhibitors, products and services.

AYSO's VIP Program will be joining the exhibitor group in two more expos in Chicago and San Jose. If you'd like to attend an expo, register here: Chicago - San Jose.
