Howard and Rebecca Luck, a couple with a special needs son, have made a remarkable journey from the struggles of special needs parenting to becoming the proud owners of the We Rock the Spectrum Northridge franchise. After facing many obstacles, Howard was determined to defy the odds and prove himself. He worked hard to obtain a degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Marketing, and in 2018 he and Rebecca began volunteering and working with We Rock the Spectrum. When they heard about the opportunity to own the Northridge franchise, they knew it was the perfect fit for their future. Their story of perseverance and helping those with different abilities is an inspiring example of the core values of We Rock the Spectrum.
