ABOUT SUSAN
My name is Susan Schaffer I have a master’s degree in rehabilitation and happen to have a congenital physical disability. I never walked so I learned to manage things my way
I believe in two things–
1. Education and Communication are the keys to full integration.
2. There should be no limitations to getting my help since we all have common threads regardless of race,religion, gender, disability, age, issue, finances, etc.
My programs are free but donations are welcome.
Chain of Challenges
I sometimes feel overwhelmed by my challenge. That’s okay as long as I don’t stay stuck in that feeling. I also realized, at a young age, that some basic education and exposure in the community enables others to feel more comfortable and it increases inclusion. Data proves that people who have challenges are equally capable, or more capable, than everyone else. Sometimes support and encouragement is necessary to improve a situation. I hold a master's degree and have 30+ years of professional experience in job placement, job development, job coaching, job counseling, and outreach. Most of all I have a passion to implement programs, literature, and activities to help others develop solutions.
This program serves 3 purposes:
- Educate people on disability,
- Empower individuals with disabilities.
- Reach out to people struggling with Challenges.
