Description: 

These are two short videos to educate the public about people with disabilities. In the first video, a young woman in a wheelchair and her male attendant are seen eating in a restaurant, clothes shopping and moving through downtown Austin, Texas. In the second video, a male and a female employee of ADAPT of Texas discuss their busy day. Both have physical handicaps. The woman is featured; we see her answering the office phone, going to the state capitol building for a hearing and then passing out pamphlets with others in downtown Austin.
