Joni Eareckson Tada is a radio host and the founder of the Joni and Friends International Disability Center.
The month of May marked the 30th anniversary of Joni Eareckson Tada's award-winning radio program, "Joni and Friends Radio," which has inspired listeners around the world and educated them about people with disabilities.
The five-minute long radio program has aired over 7,800 times during the last three decades, but at one time it didn't even seem like a possibility. Tada laughed when she was first approached by the Ambassador Advertising Agency about hosting the program in 1982, because at the time she was bedridden.
