website. Anna Maria Galdieri did about 5 or 6 workshops for
us in 2008. She is the most knowledgeable person we know and can
back up her claims with quotes from the tax law and tax court cases (some

People with Disabilities People
with disabilities comprise a heterogeneous group of people, in terms of
age, type of disability, and the conditions, which led to acquiring a
disability in addition to other demographic factors such as gender,
ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. A person may have been born with a
disability or may acquire it later in life through an accident or medical
condition. Some people may have multiple disabilities. Many disabling
conditions become stable after their acquisition, while others are
progressive and will lead to more functional limitations over
time. http://bepreparedcalifornia.ca.gov/EPO/BePrepared/PeopleDisabilities/TipsDisabilities.htm
