"Movin’ On" September, 1991
ROLLING AND HUMOR
We are moving on and our wheels are rolling! The Resource Fair on August 3rd, 1991 was a great beginning. The day long event consisted of speakers, programs and an exhibit hall of disability related information. Surely the fair generated many ideas, from developing one’s own resource network to being an active community participant. I urge you to investigate the many organizations that serve people with disabilities, as well as looking to other community resources for education, recreation and social activity. It’s all out there, but it’s up to you to follow through. To paraphrase NIKE, "Just Do It!" Movin’ On will encourage you toward that end. Some spinal cord injury (SCI) humor by Katie:
