Submit your questions for the
ASK DR. APPLEWHITE segment of our DIFferently-Abled Network meetings (aka DAN) to info@whiteappleinstitute.org
We DON'T want anyone to Drop-Out of school/college, the workforce, or life!
All members of the DIFferently-Abled Network (DAN) agree to follow the Golden Rule by treating others as they wish to be treated!
At our DAN meetings, we use the term "Differently-Abled" to continuously encourage ourselves and others to change our "PERCEPTION" of DISABLED and focus on what we are able to do to succeed in higher education and the workforce and be recognized as contributing and productive citizens. It is not our intention to ignore our disability or change the terminology necessary for health care and benefits. Please feel free to ask a DAN Member about sharing your story to inspire and inform others, and sharing what you need to succeed at school and work!
At DAN meetings, We Help undeserved persons connect to Community and Faith-Based Veteran Organizations, and other nonprofits to provide services. We define "underserved" as those who lack eligibility for services, knowledge of resources and access due to a variety of reasons (poverty, disability, education, limited work experiences, psychological, cultural, geographic location, transportation, health care, social work, gender and racial discrimination, and more). Your donation of any amount every month will cover our expenses to hold our Differently-Abled Network (DAN) meetings
