For Ethan, the most fulfilling aspect of success is bringing people joy. He says, “As long as the audience is enjoying the music, having fun, smiling, and dancing, I’m happy and I love it!”

Guest Names (if available) Our History DCVA was founded by Wanda, Elizabeth, and John Page in 1999. Elizabeth was a victim of a crime in 1988 and was paralyzed from the chest down as a result. As they began the long journey of recovery, they realized that they were not the only family that faced a tragedy of this magnitude thus Disabled Crime Victims Assistance, Inc. was formed. Our Mission Disabled Crime Victims Assistance, Inc. is committed to assisting disabled crime victims and their families, as well as promoting awareness of their specialized needs to those who serve victims and the community. Dear Friends, Family, and Supporters of DCVA, It’s hard to imagine that it has been 25 years since I was shot and paralyzed. My life changed so much that day, just 10 days after graduating from college and working as a Social Worker to fighting for my life. It continues to be a long journey for me and my family with challenges that I still face daily. My family has had to deal with so much heartache due to me being a crime victim. But I never dreamt of where God would lead me and my family. I want to share with you a couple things. First, within seconds after being shot, God gave me the Peace that I would be okay despite the severity of my injuries. Second, when I was told that I was paralyzed, I told my mom, “God has a plan, and I am ready”. When you know that God has saved you and He gives you the strength to face such an adversity, you know there is something you need to give back which brings me to Disabled Crime Victims Assistance, Inc. I cannot take credit for the idea to start DCVA. God gave Mom the idea to start DCVA, but I feel honored that God has given us this Mission to reach out to disabled crime victims and their families. Thank you for honoring DCVA on this 25th year anniversary of my survival.
