Disaboom -
it will transform the way people with disabilities
live their lives. Every tool they want or need from finding medical
information written in easy-to-understand language to buying disability
specific products, from taking a vacation to building relationships with
other Disaboom members, from travel tips and reviews to entering athletic
events or checking the weather, will be in one place. It’s an all
encompassing community that meets basic needs, but also educates its
audience about their conditions and strives to improve the overall quality
of their lives. Disaboom.com’s goal is to become the single most important
website for those living with disabilities. |
