[nabs-l] Re- The Nfb timeraining Centers

[Kaiti Shelton]

Hi, Roana,

I am a little confused as to what you are trying to achieve with this
message.  Are you asking for other's opinions on the centers, wanting
to know how to get into one, or how to increase independence?  I was a
little confused by your first statement that the centers do a great
job of preparing students for independent college life, followed by
your description of your situation and the rehab center in Daytona
Beach.  I hope fellow listers can help in the way that you are seeking
with some clarification.
