>From starting a book group to planning a birthday to getting to know
students and professionals in your field, social networking can help you
connect,
share and learn. For people with and without disabilities, social
networking offers us unprecedented opportunities to share knowledge and
experiences.
Social networking can also help us learn about events, political changes,
and movements affecting people with disabilities around the world. During
this
interactive workshop, you’ll learn how to use Facebook and Twitter to give
and receive peer support, plan, coordinate and publicize events, create
discussion
groups, learn and network around your career and community interests. This
workshop will focus on social networking and communities of disability, but
the strategies you’ll learn can apply to any professional or community
interest.
