Looking for Partners in the Community
| Last updated on June 12, 2008 |
People with disabilities are finding their place in their communities. Now we offer the opportunity for the members of the community to explore where their place is with people with disabilities. Do you want to make a difference in the life of another person? Are you interested in being a part of the solution? Come share your friendship and broaden the opportunities for people with disabilities to have relationships and community connections! Does this sound like something you're interested in? Call or e-mail now!!!
