At DONAHOO-CONSULTING, LLC® we welcome and respect every student who chooses to train with us. Everyone who appreciates the Second Amendment is welcome in our classes. This includes our commitment to work with students with different abilities to the best of our ability. The NRA Adaptive Shooting Program (https://adaptiveshooting.nra.org) is available to guide us in making reasonable accommodations, where possible, for students who need assistance. The main conditions considered are vision degradation, hearing loss, spinal cord injuries and amputations, but that list is not exhaustive nor is it all inclusive. One of the main points is to determine any conditions you may have before the course even begins. Attendance in training requires students to listen to classroom instruction, read from slide presentations/seeing a screen, sit/stand for extended periods and may include range exercises outdoors exposed to the elements, and walking/standing on uneven/unstable surfaces. If you require any accommodation to participate fully our courses please ensure that you notify us, in writing (pistolclass@donahoo-consulting.com), in advance of any accommodation that you will need to participate fully in training. Please be detailed and specific in what assistance is needed and we will do our best to provide reasonable accommodations.
