WAYNE FRENCH IS SOMEONE WHO KNOWS WHAT HE LIKES.
He enjoys snakes, professional wrestling, and spending time with friends and the staff at Citizen Advocates. He is also a huge fan of Harley Davidson motorcycles.
Although Wayne has limited mobility and expressive communication, he appreciates motorcycles and all things biker related. This includes the do-rag he wears on his head, the Harley stickers adorning his wheelchair and of course, tattoos.
Wayne previously had temporary tattoos, but decided he really wanted a permanent piece of artwork. It helps that his friend Rod Oesterling is a tattoo artist and was happy to fulfill his dream.
Thanks to Rod, Wayne was able to get a small skull tattooed on his right forearm. What’s next for Wayne? This summer, Citizen Advocates staff are helping Wayne fulfill another goal by attending Americade, the annual motorcycle rally in Lake George this summer.
When he’s not getting tattoos or attending bike rallies, Wayne is an active participant in the Enhanced Day Hab Program at Citizen Advocates.

that initially focused on getting her physical
