Peckham Speaker Series Presents: Wesley Hamilton

The Peckham Community Partnership Foundation will host its biannual series featuring Wesley Hamilton, physical and mental health advocate, CNN Hero, and executive director of the organization Disabled But Not Really, on Tuesday, Oct. 18, 2022. Hamilton will share his story of turning tragedy into triumph at a morning and afternoon session.

As a survivor of multiple gunshot wounds to the abdomen, which left him paralyzed from the waist down, Hamilton will share his personal journey from how he went from hopeless and depressed to a life full of purpose, understanding, acceptance, joy, and forgiveness.

This free event is open to all who are interested. For the first time since the pandemic, Peckham is opening its doors to an external audience and will also live-stream the event during both sessions, which include an interactive Q&A session to follow.

The morning session will take place from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m.

The afternoon session is from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m.

In-Person Location: 3510 Capital City Blvd. | Lansing, MI | 48906.

We look forward to having you join us! Whether you attend in-person or online, registration is required.
