Description:
I am mother of son with autism and know that there are many that are passionate about making a difference. I started the show with two sponsors/advertisers that helped offset the costs each week. I paid a local radio station to air the live weekly show. After one year, I began hosting the show solely on the web to broaden the listening audience. I hope I can continue to host the radio show and be syndicated so that people can call in guests, and more will become educated about disabilities. DisAbility News & Views Radio is one of a few radio broadcasts that solely focuses on disability issues. We have a waiting list of folks that want to be on the show, but need backing from investors to take the show to a new level.
