"Although the Americans with Disabilities Act
was passed fifteen years ago, people with disabilities
continue to face severe restrictions in the accessibility of
business and public facilities, in the usability of products

This is all due primarily to the persistence of traditional
presumptions and practices that no longer apply. For the most
part, people are willing to help, but too often just don't
understand what kind of help we really need."

"Pay It Forward is a book, but it's also an idea. It's an
action plan within a work of fiction. But does it have to be
fiction? We're hoping not. In fact, since the book was
released in January of 2000, a real-life social movement has
emerged, not just in the U.S. but worldwide. What began as a
