Ability not Disability

«First Of All We Are People» was the name of event devoted to people with disabilities. 25-30 people were present at the meeting organized by the Window on America Center in Lutsk together with public institution «Stumyl».

Both sides one being members of the public institution «Stumyl» and the other being the people with visual impairments had very informative discussion on the topic «Ability not Disability».

The audience was specifically interested in watching the documentary film «First Of All We Are People» that was borrowed from Window on America Center. Besides the paper show ABILITY NOT DISABILITY demonstrated important facts of life of Americans who must overcome considerable challenges each day in order to participate fully in all aspects of American life.
