About My Disability Matters

Dale Reardon, Founder

I am the founder of My Disability Matters (MDM). I want MDM to be your place to come to for information and advice on issues that are important to you. It is also a place to meet new people and make friends.

I am 46 and have been blind since the age of 17. My seeing eye dog Charlie is 7 and is my fourth dog.

For a long time I have been involved in disability advocacy. I personally believe the disability community needs a news site as well as a place for discussion around disability issues with a community willing to share information and experiences. Timeliness of news and information is a real problem that I am seeking to rectify.
