    Adventure. Disability. Access.

    Over the past 9 years, Waypoint Adventure (WPA) has led adventure education programs for people with disabilities. The adventures vary from multi-day backpacking trips up in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, to single-day kayaking trips on the Charles River in Allston, MA. Through countless adventures with a variety of groups and individuals, one thing remains certain; through the power of adventure, people with (and without!) disabilities discover their purpose, talents and strengths.

    Waypoint Adventure, along with the Podcast Garage, proudly introduce “THE POINT”: a podcast celebrating the power of adventure, brought to you by the WPA family who is committed to making these life-changing experiences accessible for each and every person.

Can I rate this six stars?

Another rad project from Waypoint Adventure! I had the opportunity to intern with Waypoint a few years ago and it’s stuck with me all these years. Their heart for people and sharing the power of adventure education is extremely evident in everything they do. Even having moved far away from where Waypoint calls home, I feel privileged to still feel like an extended member of the Waypoint community. This is more than worth the listen!
