As people with disabilities, we are often evaluated on the basis of our perceived limitations; not in light of our actual limitations. As such, unrelenting assumptions have a way of closing doors that we would otherwise pass through. This causes significant harm to us, and it stifles our ability to use our gifts in service of others.

On this page, you will learn how real people perform everyday tasks despite the negative expectations that have been placed upon them. Some of these tools and tricks will feel familiar, while others will stretch your imagination. A few of these submissions will be extraordinary, but most will strike the average reader as remarkably simple. Although each post is modest in scope, together, they paint a picture of brilliance and capability.

As you survey this content, we hope that you will stop to ponder a critical question: “Given the right opportunities, how much more can people with disabilities achieve?”.
