''Those with hidden disabilities face the most discrimination.''
Posted on Monday, October 17 @ 17:04:04 EDT by | 
BeeBee writes "Or so says Beverly Hatlen, founder of the Minnesota Life College, a three year school for young adults with hidden disabilities including Asperger's, Learning Disabilities, and speech or hearing difficulties. The school, housed in a modest apartment building selected for its proximity to bus lines, jobs and stores, doesn't issue degrees but instead concentrates on "real skills for real life."

I'd rather be going to College and getting a Degree or PFD in a Major of my choice.
I think that a lot of embarrassed Parents are going to be sending their Offspring there to get rid of them. |

(User Info | Send a Message | Journal) http://www.damnationministry.com | | I agree with the title. One day a coworker of mine was asked by a visitor referring to me, "Is that guy on drugs?" No, I am not on drugs; I'm stimming.
The school sounds like a good place for some; I wonder if I would have felt comfortable there. |
