Cha-Ching!
Who doesn’t like money?! I do a little shimmy every time I get paid. Some may define money as the root of all evil. Some may say, “money is not everything.” That may be true, but money can also give you a sense of freedom, empowerment, liberation, and peace of mind. People with disabilities should experience all the wonders of money by having a job. People with disabilities possess many skills; they are qualified and capable of learning new things. Being out in the community, and earning a wage gives them a sense of purpose, pride, and makes them feel like everyone else. I’ve seen people with disabilities working at Home Depot, Burlington Coat Factory, Gap Factory Outlet, and Target. How can they acquire experience if no one gives them a chance, if job opportunities are few and far between, or if they are not affiliated with an organization?
