LifeWaters

About this episode

The episode discusses LifeWaters, an organization providing affordable scuba training for people with disabilities.

Join us on Operation Insight as we host Charley Wright (Founder), Matt Wilson (President), and Steve Siress (Coordinator) of LifeWaters! The goal of LifeWaters has always been to provide training and scuba opportunities while trying to decrease the cost of training and travel for people with disabilities. Life with a disability is expensive, no matter how great your insurance or VA coverage. LW understands that. We want to give people affordable opportunities to participate in LifeWaters’ experiences. LifeWaters isn't just about diving. The social return on investment reaches far beyond one individual, going into the family and community of the adaptive diver by providing hope and strength for a better tomorrow. It is about giving people with disabilities a chance to expand the possibilities of their life, creating moments of pain-free living, and long- term camaraderie with others. https://www.lifewaters.org/contact-us.html (00:00) Disclaimer (01:01) Opening Theme (01:30) Introduction (1:18:20) Part II (1:46:27) Closing
