Great news - like everything else this year, the Abilities Expo will be online. You, you, you and you are all going!
Whether you're in the market for equipment or not, whether you have money or not, going to the Abilities Expo is a good idea for people with disabilities and their families. You're seeing some of the latest tech available on the market. Service organizations come out to show you what's out there to take advantage of. There are excellent and fun presentations by experts and entertainers alike. And tons of people with disabilities and their families to see, to meet, to swap ideas and numbers with. I come away with new ideas to talk out, new numbers to call, new websites to check out, new friends to email, brand new energy.
Of course you got to get their first. Sometimes that's a hassle or an impossibility. The Abilities Expo only takes place in six cities every year. Good for the folks near those cities, right, but what about the rest? And of course Covid wiped out the in-person Abilities Expos earlier in the year, all canceled.
Well the great news is that the circumstances leveled the playing field for everyone, and the Abilities Expo goes completely online from Nov. 20-22. Everybody can attend, for free. All the exhibitioners, service orgs, presentations (Tony-winner Ali Stroker!), all waiting for us to visit in our jammies.
Good on ya, organizers!
I already said Free free free, but first you gotta register.

I am going to attend! I have been looking for things to help with my Ehlers Danlos joint pain, plus I think it would just be interesting. I'm excited that it's online, too. Also, I love and miss you!!!
ReplyDeleteI'll see you there! It can stir things up in the noggin, for brainstorming or drawing me out of a stuck space, just seeing the ways others are doing things. We love you too, my star.
