Advocacy for Accessibility in East Lansing
Alexander "Zander" Bowles, a resident of East Lansing, has been a regular attendee at East Lansing City Council meetings, providing advice on making city facilities more accessible.
Zander's interest in city government began when he attended a city meeting for class credit. He has since become a key advocate for improving accessibility in the city, often attending meetings in his wheelchair.
“It means his muscles are not working the way ours do, and some of his muscles are constantly firing,”
said his dad, Ryan Bowles, describing Zander's cerebral palsy, a neurological condition affecting movement and posture. Zander uses a power wheelchair and a special device to communicate with others.
Zander's efforts have brought greater accessibility awareness to the local government, making a positive impact on the community.
