I AM A COLLEGE STUDENT THAT HAVE A LEARNING DISABILITY. FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS I HAE BECAME INVOLVE WITH THE DISABILITY COMMUNITY, ME AND SOME OTHER YOUTH HAVE DESIGN THE DISABILITY HISTORY WEEK BILL WHICH WAS PASSED IN MARCH OF 2006 THIS IS THE FIRST BILL IN THE COUNTRY TO HAVE A BILL THAT RECOGNIZE THE DISABILITY MOVEMENT. I HAVE JUST STARTED TO GO AROUND SCHOOLS IN MY HOME TOWN OF BECKELY TO EDUCATE THEM ABOUT OUR HISTORY. I AM CURRENTLY HELPING TO GET THE DISABILITY HISTORY WEEK BILL PASSED NATIONAL. THIS IS ANOTHER STEPING STONE THAT DISABILITY COMMUNITY HAVE STEP OVER, THE NEXT STEP IS GETTING ACCESSIBLE, AFFORTABLE, INTERGRATED HOUSING, SO PEOPLE CAN GET OUT OF THE NURSING HOMES AND GET ON WITH THEIR LIVES. WE STILL HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO .
