Hi there,
As you know, there are numerous challenges for those living with physical disabilities. To show our support, the PublicHealthCorps team is working on a new section of our site that will be dedicated to the best resources on the web for individuals and families affected by disabilities. (You can take a look at the “Top Five” section of our website to get an idea of how it will look.) Do you have any helpful articles you recommend we add to this new section of our site? If so, please send them my way. Below is what we’ve found so far - we encourage you to share these with your site visitors too (maybe here: http://bugs.debian.org/257524?)!
