I would let them know up front and then do your thing. You wouldn't want to
work for anyone who would consider having a spinal cord injury a problem

But one doesn't need to advertise their disability first over their capabilities. Many people/businesses still see trouble coming by hiring a disabled employee. DON'T LET THEM MAKE "THEIR" PROBLEM of prejudice or "they'll cost me money with adaptive environment" attitude. Yeah... those are write-offs and we may fill a minority quota but businesses may be leery.
I was in the paper on this issue. See it here ... http://michaelsons.org/Notoriety.htm <-- shows me at my desk. The article is about businesses worrying about the cost and potential lawsuits that can go along with hiring the disabled despite the federal law.
