Hector Del Valle, MSW
Founder of HDV Speaks,
Speaker | Author | Advocate
for Disability Empowerment, Recovery Communities, and Accessible & Affordable Housing
Having a purpose, as you may be painfully aware, is everything. I believe mine is to uplift and empower people with disabilities—especially those who are newly injured, going through major transitions, or simply feeling stuck.
My 'why' is simple... I’ve lived this life since 1982!
I became paralyzed at 17. Since then, I’ve faced addiction, heartbreak, and cancer (three separate times) — and still, I rise. God has given me this time, so I’ve committed it to using my voice, my experiences, and my heart to help others thrive through their own transitions.
You're
NOT Alone
Let's Connect!
This is more than a business...
It’s my life. It’s my story. And it’s my ministry.
So, I invite you to connect with us—not only to stay updated on our endeavors but also to exchange ideas and inspiration, support one another, and celebrate every little victory.
Let’s thrive through this transition—together.
