National Resource Directory for Veterans Useful for Others, Too

I recently came across a Resource Directory as a result of a feed from disability.gov. The title of the particular page that addresses adaptive technology for automobiles is "Where Can I Learn About Adapting Automobiles for Disabilities." (Available at http://tinyurl.com/y8q5syf) Although nominally for "Wounded, Ill, and Injured service members," this site has a wealth of information that would be useful to almost everyone in the disability community. If you are part of the disability community, whether disabled, yourself, a family member, or volunteer, or a person who works with the disabled, please take some time to explore this wonderful site. You might also go to the government's Disabilities Web Site and choose one of the alternatives on the right-hand side of the page to stay updated.

As long as I am making reference to one Resource Directory, another Resource Directory can be found at by the Center for Infants and Children with Special Needs (at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center). This is a fantastic resource to find help for anyone, child or adult, who has a disability. (Available at http://tinyurl.com/ycagagj)
