Through her non-profit organization THYME and Play, Eva Vega strives to remove barriers facing atypical families—but in order to find success, she first had to overcome entrepreneurial obstacles of her own.  In this episode of the Class E Podcast, Vega discusses the value of the GVL Starts Program, the power of perseverance, and how her roles as a mother and veteran have shaped her non-profit.

About the Guest:

"THYME and Play is a service-connected disabled-veteran-run non-profit organization that provides truly inclusive events and experiences for the atypical community.  

Our mission is to create fun events that ultimately remove the barriers that atypical families and disabled veterans often face when going out. We do this through fully customized, unique events held by us or by working with local community partners and introducing realistic accommodations that foster safer, and more meaningful experiences for our disabled community members."
