Conversation with Becca Meyers
September 20th, 2024
The Usher Syndrome Society is hosting our next Conversations with USH in honor of Usher Syndrome Awareness Day. This event will showcase a short film created by The Usher Syndrome Society about paralympic swimmer Becca Meyers, and her experience as a world champion athlete living with Usher syndrome. Following the debut of the film, Rebecca Alexander, psychotherapist and recognized keynote speaker, who is also living with Usher syndrome, will engage in a heartfelt interview with Becca about her ongoing journey.
