Someone correct me if I'm wrong here. I personally feel that "most" disabled folks have a lesser sense of self-esteem then most non-disabled people. Am I right?

Anyway, when it come to starting your own business self-esteem plays a huge part in the start up and relative success of the venture. I believe as a vital segment of society, we are needed to invest our time and effort toward contributing to the business community. We have much to offer.

Here is an article on starting your own biz and the help which is available. I have researched the grant money possibilities but apparently they exist.

If you think the job market is tough for the able-bodied, consider the case for those with disabilities.

In Florida, estimates of the jobless rate among disabled, working-age adults — including large numbers of young, severely injured soldiers returning to civilian life — run as high as 50 percent.

To address the problem, nonprofit organizations and government agencies recently have begun pushing an option that many with disabilities may have once thought unlikely: becoming entrepreneurs.
