Oh I personally think this is a fantastic Idea.

I'm a advocate for the state of Indiana. But I usually work
for helping parents get the right in schools for their kids.

But I do other things too. Just today I learned of a young
lady that needs a new walker and is in need of help getting
her Vocational Rehabilation case reopened. Thanks to a caseworker
who wasn't to willing to help by coming to her when she doesn't
have the transportation to get to him, it was closed.

She lives in a small rural community, and the only transportation
that she is guaranteed is a ride to work. She works for walmart.

But to help get to work, she wants to do a driving school. And
needs vocational rehabilation to help set it up. But the person
wasn't willing to work around her schedule at all. So I'm on
the case and going over his head.

And I'm working to find the agencies that help with walkers.

Our state doesn't have a good Celbral Palsy organization so I've
got to do some research.
