  1. Public service almost killed me.

    I was appointed Community Partnership Program appointee for the National organization of Disabilities 1994-1998 for Magnolia, Arkansas. During these 4 years I fell on the SAU campus in Magnolia because they would not make the streets, buildings, etc., accessible. There were no curb cuts, no rails for balance on steps, no rails in showers, no electric doors in many buildings, etc. These cognitive challenges (24) have made it impossible to complete my teaching certificate in 1998 after nomination for a teaching scholarship from the AR Governor. Even though SAU blackballed many into thinking I couldn’t teach, I was successful in 2007 in teaching for SubTeachUSA (870)236-3348. I’ve teacher quotes, should you want to see them. In fact, 2nd Chance at Life (870)862-7283 employed me as a teacher in August, but I fell & they fired last month. Serving for the NOD nation cost me, much, especially teaching.
