Family Village: A Global Community of Disability-Related Resources About this site: Family Village seeks to build community via live chats, parent-to-parent message boards, and by linking users to event sites like that of the Special Olympics. (http://www.familyvillage.wisc.edu/index.htmlx) Pluses: The discussion boards are always lively, with an active exchange on nearly every disability. Minuses: Little original content; if you want general information on a condition, you'll be linked to other sites. Best feature: The Coffee Shop offers parents opportunities to chat with other parents, post to message boards, and join regional parent-to-parent programs.
