The meeting took place November 16th, 2007 at the Columbia Lighthouse for the Blind.
The members of the group that participated in the meeting were: Gail Snider, Joe Richmond, Joanne Rossfeld, Linda Hill, Maria Proschan and Patsy Woolcott.
Also, there was a participant that is a current student of the EMST, her name is Theresa Thomas and, later came a guest, Ms Dona Patrick who as helping M. Proschan with the creation of the web site of Unlimited Success.
M. Proschan told us that the group meetings will take place the second Wednesday of every month at the CLB.
G. Snider commented about the pages for find jobs as: washingtondiversity.com, careerbuilder.com and washingtonpost.com/jobs.
What we talked about the web site was:
- We can have a segment of frequently ask questions and solve problems about computer or other issues.
- Contact information, we need to have an email address where people can send an email and we can answer them
- Add a suggestion box for workshops
Dona Patrick, our web site administrator, came and discussed with us what we can include in the links such as:
- Give some tips for navigation with JAWS. (M. Proschan spoke with someone at Freedom Scientific, and they fell that the idea was good and there would be no reason to be concerned with copy right laws.)
- Also we can include listings of JAWS friendly job websites.
- Because we want to reach a lot of people, there is an interest in providing information in English and in Spanish.
The web address is: www.unltdsuccess.wordpress.com
This is a free of charge place to post our information, however, Dona thinks we can change to a different server if our needs required it.
