Cerebral Palsy Discussion > Is working from home my only option?
I have CP, am a college graduate, and recently received an offer for a position as a life insurence agent. My supervisor has been really helpful and eager to work out a good position for me so that I'm not constantly leaving the office. Instead, I make the telephone calls and other agents go out and actually sell the products. So there are plenty opportunities besides just working from home. Just check out your local job site and reread the ADA.

Veronica, the ADA is a great suggestion!
Kudos to your supervisor as well! Great to see he is so supportive. And, to be honest with you, Veronica, your job is more important tho those in the field. The "Presale" is the hardest most effective part of selling!
Thanks for the post Veronica!

Here is another helpful link, for Government Jobs for those with disabilities:

Nothing beats the security of government jobs or their benefits!

NO! There are Thousands of different kinds of opportunities out there for those of us with Cerebral Palsy.
What was your first job? And how did your disability help or hurt you during your employment?
