The League for People with Disabilities

On Thursday, WBAL-TV 11 Baltimore reporter Tommie Clark WBAL got her toes wet in learning about the life-saving benefits of our Malcolm Hecht Therapeutic Swimming Pool. Long-term members like Michelle Weaver-Johns are able to recover from major surgeries thanks to the warm water, and even warmer community of support.

The League for People with Disabilities says its Baltimore pool builds confidence and water safety skills — but a shortage of swimming instructors is holding it back.
