Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!.......2007-01-12
I am a job placement counselor for MERS/Goodwill in Missouri and work daily with people who struggle with barriors to employment. Disabilities of all types cross my desk as I meet these fabulous, determined individuals. This book helped me understand how to put these issues in perspective and really help my clients and represent them the best way possible! I really recommend this book to anyone who feel they want to work but have any disability that could be an obstacle. I also recommend this book to anyone who is in Human Services and work with people (or live with someone) who need extra support. It was a great guide for me!
