uodsp: FW: What do you know about designing for disability? ♿

[Rochelle Ghose]

Greetings,

I've been on a list-serve with Heidi von Ravensberg for a number of years
since I'd lived in Oregon. It's been a few years and I'm not quite as
connected as I'd like to be, however, I'm still interested in issues that
connect folks with disabilities. The survey that is being put out is a
great idea for many agencies and individuals to participate from both
Portland and areas near and far. My apologies for forwarding to others on
late notice as I've just received this myself.

For the folks who are sending out this survey, if you have already been
introduced to various organizations and networks within the disability
realm, please accept my apologies. If not, I would highly suggest you
contact some folks who live, work and breathe disability issues. Many are
listed below.

For the folks I'm listing below, please feel free to pass along to your
networks as well and if possible take the survey that *the deadline is
March 31st*.
