[nabs-l] international students

[zeynep sule yilmaz]

Hi all,

Elif, that's a great topic to talk about here too. I'm asking all the
NABS members. How NABS can support international students better? Is
there any idea? Most of us had or still have some problems because of
being international student. This may be lack of the information and
resources that are available to American sitizens with disabilities. I
know that being a strong self-advocate is always what we would like,
however, we need support from native students sometimes.  I would like
to know, if any of the NABS members have any idea on that.

Thanks
Zeynep
