Mission in Action
When you meet Evelyn it is hard to believe that she is only 16 years of age.
This incredible young woman exudes such confidence and wisdom, that all
the adults around her listen quietly as she shares her inspiring life perspective.
Evelyn grew up in Tooele, Utah with her mom, Mary, and two older siblings.
At six months old, Evelyn had a rare reaction to a routine vaccine which,
within hours, resulted in paralysis from the neck down. After years of multiple
surgeries and intensive therapy, Evelyn was able to walk with assistance and
talk. She continues to battle a multitude of health challenges but approaches
each day with an infectious smile and positive attitude.
Evelyn Goldsberry Evelyn and Mary learned of NAC when she was about eight years old, but
their concern about costs initially prevented them from participating. Once
NAC PARTICIPANT
they realized they could apply for a scholarship, they quickly signed up,
with their first activity being on the challenge course. Over time, Evelyn has
discovered her passion for everything water: water skiing, kayaking, stand up
paddle boarding and her all-time favorite, river rafting.
When Evelyn isn’t at school or NAC, she loves singing, poetry and playing the
cello. She is excited to get more involved in school theater and she is currently
studying to be a Certified Nursing Assistant.
“Life before NAC was two dimensional – I was
just in survival mode – now its three-dimensional
and I can focus on living my best life.”

“My disability affected me greatly as a kid ... which just snowballed as I got older,

differences make us all the same. - STEVEN WILKE
