International Exposure

For some reason recently 36 countries beyond this country have viewed this blog. There is a huge variety of countries. Many are from Latin America & Mexico, but there are people from many other places.

It appears that there is a huge interest in the topic of disabilities. I am asking you post information or websites that can assist people from other countries & speaking a variety of languages. You can post information in other languages, but it would help if you can also post in English, so I can read it.

Since there are many Spanish speaking readers, here is a list of sites that I am aware of that post information in Spanish: http://www.taalliance.org/resources/spanish.asp
