pH Wellness empowers people of all ages and ability levels to have a high quality of life and a sense of belonging & purpose. We believe our clients need access to resources that will increase their ability to meet their needs and achieve their dreams. That is why we have assembled a team of support staff to provide some of the help you may need discovering what is available to you in your area. It can be challenging knowing what to ask or how to get started advocating for yourself or others…
Don’t let that stop you! Reach out to us to find out more about how you can plug into existing resources, or start your own way of giving back and providing support!
Let me introduce myself . . . my name is Sonja Baker & I am known by many as being unstoppable because I am always on the go!
I like to participate and take on anything that I know that I can do to help others to make life much easier for them. I am well-versed with the challenges that come with having a life-altering disability, but I don’t let that stop me from living my life!
I attended the University of Northern Colorado and received a BA degree in Special Education and minored in Reading. I became an advocate for myself as I got older because I knew that I would have to advocate for myself if I wanted to go to college and live on my own and be able to drive and work on my own. I was dedicated to attending the National Spina Bifida conferences to learn about the new medical research that is updated yearly.
In the past few months I have learned about how to work with the legislation to keep medicaid for the handicapped on a national level and on the state level of the Spina Bifida Association. Recently I have taken the initiative to create an Advocacy Group [Canon City Advocates] for those with disabilities – and daily work to establish lasting connections that add momentum to my pursuit.
Spina bifida is not only an ongoing challenge – but an opportunity – as I am dedicated to helping others to create solutions out of any struggle. I am known to the community as a problem solver, who really knows how to create a workable plan. I am highly responsive, and know how to take action & encourage others to develop their interests and personal talents! I am a mentor for kids and adults, and I offer sponsorship advice for universal success.
