Alice Mcgowen Email and Phone Number

Alice McGowen has been disabled for 21 years and spends most of her days at home in Jerseyville, IL with her Service dog Annie. Being isolated from the public and her community only helped to inspire her. She became a digital volunteer for Humanity Road and as she searched for information, it dawned on her that many individuals who are disabled also face the same challenges. She now serves as the Team Leader of the Vulnerable Population Team where she established the Disability, Accessibility and Functional needs social media awareness program and launched a new hashtag to track information for vulnerable populations, #DAFN. In her role she not only supports her state and local area but also national campaigns. She is trained in CDC Crisis and Emergency Risk Communications (CERC), ADA Accessible Assembly Areas and tweets as @FoxRn1. In 2015, Alice received the Lifetime Achievement award from President Barack Obama.
