Newly disabled? – Now what?

Collectively, CWDO members have a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience to share. Check out the schedule of gatherings in the Members’ Lounge and get involved with a CWDO Committee. These are two great ways to connect with real experts on handling a disability.

Otherwise, just write to us at membership@cwdo.org, and we will try to connect you to someone in our network who can help answer an immediate question you may have.
