What do you like about this subject? I like helping people overcome the challenges of having disabilities, finding resources, and having a better life. Many times this doesn't involve changing the person with disabilities, but changing the environment, or society.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject Dignity of risk, inclusion, equal rights, cohousing, etc..

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: Cohousing is an interesting option for people who would like to live in a "community of mutual support".
