WORK FLEXIBILTY
BY GREG MILLER AND EDITED BY GREG MOORE
This afternoon’s post is about achieving flexibility at the workplace. Sandy Hanebrink, an Occupational Therapist with the Social Security Administration, advocates and educates on issues related to disability employment. In the video below, she provides valuable guidance to both employed and unemployed disabled workers.
In addition to talking about work flexibility, Hanebrink also provides information on how to obtain durable equipment, assistive technology, and Government funding. These three things combined enhance flexibility for those who have jobs and those seeking them.

The Very Different Life of Quinn Bradlee
Written by Greg Miller and edited by Greg Moore
Today I want to talk about how parents deal with young adults with disabilities. The parents I have in mind are Sally Quinn and Ben Bradlee. Sally was a correspondent for CBS News. She also wrote a column for the New York Daily News. Her husband, Ben Bradlee, is the former editor for the Washington Post and author of My Life, which is the title of his autobiography. Sally and Ben have a son name Quinn Bradlee, 27, who has a disability called Velocardiofacial Syndrome (VCFS).
Quinn has his own book titled A Different Life, which is the subject of the C-SPAN interview located here. It illustrates how the Bradlee family struggled to deal with Quinn’s disability. Sally states in the interview that each family member went to therapy, and that it was the common thread which brought them back together. She goes on to say their family could not possibly stay together without it. The interview sends a strong message to us all that we are interdependent and we can’t do it alone.

UP AND DOWN OF THE JOB MARKET
BY GREG MILLER (Typed by Greg Moore)
Today I thought I would bring to you a balanced view of the job market for the disabled community. Two programs come to mind. Number one is a program with Peggy Mastriani, who is chief counsel for the equal opportunity commission. The three most common problems are transportation, access to work sites, health coverage and access to housing near the work place. Positive program I saw online. Another program is the president committee on the employment of the disable on the employment. The three employees Jim Click JR, an auto dealer in Tucson AZ, Joyce Branford began a exertive employment company for the disable after recovering from a brain hemorrhage. Laurie Hershey received her degree in rehabilitative counseling after working with Jim, Click JR. The most imported point she brought out was the advisement in technology so she work on he own. Real life is field with difficulties and advances how we handled is are real challenge,

Employment for the Disabled
ATTITUDE AND ACCEPTANCE BY GREG MILLER (Typed By Greg Moore)
Attitude and acceptance are the largest obstacles for full employment of the disabled. Over the past couple of days I have been watching several videos dealing with the disabled and cooingly handicap. The common issues I have seen discussed by the panels are attitude facilities for independent living medical aides personal support. The most common attitude most frequently brought up was then ability as employers that brought home to me the fact the attitude the change. The employers’ attitudes must change first. Public law 504 was written to ensure access to full employment to the disable 94-122 is a law that guarantees full access to the education from age 5 to 22. The point we’re trying to stress here is when full employment is combined with opportunities the world of business and for a full life can flower.
