Disability Awareness Day touched many locally

For 15 years, Options for Independence has sponsored “Disability Awareness Day” (DAD). The event invites community members to share on a temporary basis what one in five Americans experience every day - living a disability. Participants in DAD assume a disability for a morning and then take part in a roundtable discussion of their experiences. The event was held at Owasco Elementary School and was catered through the generosity of Balloon's Restaurant.
