FM #1177 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 1177 in the series.
This session of the radio show shares my conversation with Mary O’Neill, Franklin Commission on Persons with Disabilities. We met to record in the Franklin TV & Public Radio studio on Friday, April 19, 2024.
We talk about the Disability Expo scheduled for the Franklin Senior Center on May 4, 2024 (yes, may the fourth be with you!). It will begin at 11 AM and run until 2 PM.
Free admission, free tickets to a couple of gift baskets, and plenty of resources to talk with about various aspects of disability.
If you have a question for Mary, you can reach her at 508-440-1265.
If you would like a “Kindness Matters” sign, text Mary at the same # and she’ll arrange for you to get one.
The conversation runs about 12 minutes. Let’s listen to my conversation with Mary. Audio link -> https://franklin-ma-matters.captivate.fm/episode/fm-1177-disability-expo-mary-oneill-04-19-24
