When one or more members of a group have special needs (such as the need for an American Sign Language interpreter or wheelchair accessibility, or have an illness which prevents them from getting to the meeting room), A.A. members from that group will attempt to see that those needs are met. The members of a Special Needs Committee explore, develop and offer resources to make the A.A. message and participation in our program available to everyone who reaches out for it. A G.S.O. staff member who serves on the Special Needs assignment, is available as a resource and communicates with local Special Needs Committees.

Extractions: Vol. 2, No. 8 September, 1999 An Update on ATLAS/Advanced Training for Leadership and Skills continued from page 1 The recognition that the disability issue is a human rights issue was identified as a major concern during the exchange on equal rights and advocacy. The use of offensive terms and discrimination in employment, the failure to enforce laws against discrimination, and the need for more support for non-governmental organizations working with people with disabilities were also raised. During the discussions, it was acknowledged that education and training requires not only more resources, but also a more thoughtful approach. The debate continues as to whether people with disabilities require special education or should be included in main stream settings. Nonetheless, the importance of education and training, including research on the best teaching methods and appropriate curriculum, are also important factors that must be addressed to ensure that people with disabilities have the opportunity to make the most of their skills and talent. Mr. Khalfan Khalfan, Chairperson of the Zanzibar Association of People with Disabilities described the effectiveness of his organization's work in implementing a community based rehabilitation program for prevention, rehabilitation and integration. He also spoke of the plans underway to implement the African Decade of Disabled People (2000-2009). (see story on page 5)
