All About You!
Sometimes it's important to get good advice about stuff going on in your life. Who better to get advice
from than other folks with disabilities?
A lot of people have the attitude that disability is something to be fixed or to be ashamed of. We at
Access Living believe that disability is just a natural part of life. Just like people come in all colors,
people also come in all shapes, sizes and abilities. We are proud of what makes us unique and
different.
Sometimes people are so busy working at being "normal" that it's hard to actually say out loud that disability
can make your life a bit more complicated. Instead of worrying about your disability and what people
think, what are some ways to just deal with it and get on to the real business of life, like going to school,
getting a job and dating someone you really like?
One of the good things about the disability community is folks have a lot of wisdom to share about
life with a disability. That's what this section is all about.
