Our co-founder, Alana Shepherd, turned 90 last week, and at Shepherd Center, we like to celebrate birthdays all month long! Did you know that Alana championed b...ringing the International Paralympic Games to Atlanta in 1996? She changed Olympic/Paralympic history when her efforts led the International Olympic Committee to decree that all cities seeking to be the site of future Olympic Games must include plans and proposed financing for the Paralympics, as well access to the same sites and facilities. Though the Paralympics were postponed for 2020, we can’t wait to celebrate when they return! See more
