How does the community work? (How is the community structured?)
When you are on the main page, you can find the general categories of the EnableMe Community on the lower right side of the page. Here, you will find the three main categories ‘Community’, ‘Health’, and ‘Living’.
- The ‘Community’ category is the one focused on the community exchange and socializing. Within the ‘Community’ category you will find subcategories such as Welcome Posts and Introductions, the Coffee Lounge to chat about anything, the Search & Offer hub, as well as local community hubs, and editorial posts from the EnableMe Community Managers. If you have feedback for us, it will be most helpful to share in this category.
- Within the ‘Health’ category, you can scroll through or pose concrete questions about specific disabilities and chronic illnesses, to find disability- and illness-specific communities, posts, and tips. This includes separations between physical, sensory, psychosocial, and intellectual disabilities, as well as chronic illnesses, and assistive technology and therapy.
- The ‘Living’ category includes a variety of topics that cover the areas of life that may be affected by disability and illness. Here you can ask and answer questions about, for example, ‘job and profession’, ‘education’, ‘travel and mobility’, ‘relationships and sexuality’, and many more.
