The Wheel Challenge

An effective and simple method for growing disability inclusion is to implement an experiential activity called "The Wheel Challenge." I am hoping that the idea will spread similar to "The Ice Bucket Challenge" did for alzheimers. Community Aid is a thrift shop that has 7 locations and Handz on Hope is a program that provides creative learning experiences for people of all ages. These two programs are willing to help improve disability inclusion. I tried to start disability awareness with power points and presentations. I think these experiential programs will work better over the spring and summer. Eventually this will generate support of bigger businesses. People sitting in wheelchairs while doing normal activities like shopping and working will really make people re-think the way people see people with challenges. The idea is to think outside the box and give chances to people who would not normally get them.
