2007 Disability Toolkit Resources

This Disability Toolkit provides an outline of major steps for organizing a disability initiative in conjunction with an existing community based partnership. The Toolkit is based in part from information developed/created from existing partnership activities, National Partners, and from various studies and research. It also includes samples from various efforts across the country that can be used as “go-bys” that you or your partners may choose to modify for use in your community. Each disability initiative will have its own set of individual circumstances (i.e. demographics of the community, organizations included in the initiative, etc.) and there is no right or wrong way for an individual community to proceed with its own work. The Toolkit is simply a guide; each step noted in this toolkit does not need to be addressed in order for your efforts to be successful.
