A Community for People with Disabilities
NEW YORK, April 3, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Our Ability announced today that it will launch OurAbility.com 2.0 on April 5th, 2012.
"Our goal with Our Ability is to be theonline resource for People with Disabilities. We are building a community of people with disabilities to be able to mentor and connect with one another," said President John Robinson. "So often, I get questions about education, employment, bullying and relationships. These answers are best when they come from others with similar experiences. Our website will allow communication between People with Disabilities."
Our Ability 2.0 will add Our Community - a social network where people can communicate, add a profile, search for jobs as well as upload there own video stories. "I have always seen the need for people to discuss subjects amongst themselves," Robinson added. "And we really want to add features that are exciting and promote creativity. We are adding a video feature where people can tell their own stories. I spoke to the wonderful people at It Gets Better for the LGBT community and they provided invaluable guidance."
Our Ability Vice President Doug Hamlin noted, "Before Our Ability John and I both achieved a certain level of business success. Our sincere hope is that other disabled individuals with similar experiences will share their stories and inspire even more folks with disabilities to challenge themselves to even higher levels of achievement."
Our Ability will be the pathway for People with Disabilities to find careers, education and inspiration. We aspire to be the resource for the business community to reach qualified talent. Our Ability raises funds by producing videos for clients such as Albany Medical Center, Institute for Veterans and Military Families, Syracuse University, Cargill and New York State Services for Individuals with Disabilities.
Launch of the site is with the help of Antler Agency of Boston. "The goal was to create a website that communicates Our Ability's professional and sincere mission while at the same time embodying the personal nature of all the individuals that make up Our Community," commented Antler co-founder, Luke Garro. "We accomplished this through an intuitive user-friendly design that immediately engages the audience with high-quality video stories with the follow up action enticing them to share their own story."
