The 7 Wonders of the World of Disabilities
Hollingsworth, Jan Carter; Apel, Laura
Exceptional Parent, v38 n11 p50-55 Nov 2008
The New 7 Wonders of the World organization announced a shiny new list of the world's premier candidates. The people behind "Exceptional Parent" (EP) magazine were intrigued and inspired by the New 7 Wonders undertaking, and it started them thinking. If they had to name the 7 Wonders of the World of Disabilities, what or who would they be? During the past year, EP's editorial staff spent time talking with leaders in the disabilities field in narrowing down the list. This article presents the narrowed down list of the 7 Wonders of the World of Disabilities.
