"Barrier Free: Serving Young Women wih Disabiliities" is a new
manual designed to increase the educational, vocational and
social options of adolescent girls with physical or sensory
disabilities.   The book leads the reader through a process of
greater awareness on both a personal and professional level and
helps groups examine some important issues that disabled young
women -- like all teenaged girls- face: career exploration,
independent living, and sexuality.  This concise, accessible,
step-by-ste- training manual suggests exercises and activities
for groups to use.
