This organization works with people who are disabled and senior citizens. FRA sponsors a senior center for the senior citizens of Fairbanks where various activities are held. They would like to foster inclusion of people with both physical and mental disabilities .
People are available to come into the classroom to bring videos and demonstrate equipment.
Some of the activities could include spending the day in a wheelchair, planning a classroom so that it could accommodate a wheelchair and other eye-opening activities. Other activities could be having a class sponsor a disabilities panel. During this activity students could question people with disabilities and learn more about their struggles and triumphs. Students in the 5th or 6th grade could author a book on disability etiquette to be used with younger students. In February, of this year students from Randy Smith Middle School made Valentines for the seniors, and they really enjoyed them.
