Purpose of the DISABLED HOTLINE
Our goal at the Disabled Hotline is to make available to persons with disabilities around the metropolitan area of New York City and points beyond become more aware of the vast network of services and agencies that are available to them, their family, friends and service providers.
We have a 24 hour telephone hotline service to help council, refer and guide persons, children and their families and friends during and after any crisis or event. We are experienced advocates for the disabled. In addition to our hotline, we record special events and happenings, surrounding many issues relating to the disabled. We even have a live call in service on some local access stations.
We currently recondition donated, recycled equipment and distribute complete computer systems to children who are developmentally disabled, adults as well as non-profit organizations that are in the New York Metro area that service the developmentally disabled.
