    That will help a 22 year quadriplegic, build a house that is both wheelchair accessible and 100% green?

    Yes I have a good friend of mine works there and she had them contact me and you must be working at least 30 hours per week and have an annual income of $15,000. Which, I have neither as I am 100% disabled in my education background is specialized.

    Although, I did work three different jobs through the Social Security Administration on a program called the PASS plan, on this plan you can work as many hours as the employer will give you. I was still able to keep my social security benefits during that nine-month program, I went to Arizona State University West campus.

    To get a degree In Sociology, after working nine months for the State of Arizona, my position was being done away with. I was a schoolteacher and was voted schoolteacher of the month nine months in a row. At the end of the nine months this state was supposed to hire me provided I had satisfactory reviews. Which I honestly did but as I stated above they said the position was being done away with.

    I got to know some of the other teachers that had worked there for years, except they were not disabled.

    If you need further information, I will be logging on more often to check for messages.

    Sincerely
