When contacting a large company I was told "Our building isn't wheelchair bound." WHAT? that statement doesn't even make sense. Those people truly need an awareness program. So how does one encourage an awareness program for a place like that? Well the facilitator could be someone with a different type of disability who could enter the building? Sometimes inaccessibility makes the employer more receptive and other times it results in being ignored. It makes me pretty upset when key people, programs, and groups display their apathy. They are the one's who need the training instead we "preach to the already converted." This can become quite frustrating since their are always more people to meet and learn.
