Description: The Living Well with a Disability Program promotes healthy independent living. It uses a ten week wellness workshop for people with disabilities that helps participants achieve full participation through health maintenance and health promotion activities. Individuals who participated in Living Well also report less limitation due to secondary health conditions,reduced health care costs, improvements in outlook, and positive changes in daily activities, such as new employment, returning to school, or more active social lives.
