We are providing a Google News feed of “disability” news, as we’ve found that it’s a thorough way to showcase the happenings in disability communities, and to encourage discussion in our Groups and Forums.
The feed posts automatically and updates several times a day. Please note that we can’t control everything that posts. Some of the content may have nothing to do with the disabilities discussed here on Glimmer, and some content may not appeal to our readers. That’s a risk we’re willing to take.
If you have feedback, or recommendations on how to improve this feed, we’d love to hear from you — please contact us.
