"Disability Matters" with Joyce Bender

PITTSBURGH, PA- Doro Koch, sister of President George W. Bush will be
featured with Joyce Bender on "Disability Matters" on Tuesday, October
5, 2004, from 2 PM to 3 PM Eastern Time.  Doro is a national
spokesperson on quality of life and inclusion for Americans with
disabilities.

Ms. Koch has campaigned extensively for her father, President George
H.W. Bush, and her brother, President George W. Bush.  She is a board
member of the National Rehabilitation Hospital and sits on several other
boards including the Bender Consulting Services' Advisory Board, working
to promote the employment and empowerment of people with disabilities.
Ms. Koch is also active in her church and children's school.

Ms. Koch is a graduate of Boston College with a Bachelor of Arts Degree.
She has returned to college and is currently pursuing a Masters Degree

The host of Disability Matters, Joyce A. Bender, is President and CEO of
Bender Consulting Services, Inc. (BCS) and its "sister company" Bender
Consulting Services of Canada, Inc. (BCSC).  BCS provides competitive
employment opportunities for Americans with disabilities in the areas of
information technology, engineering, finance/accounting, human resources
and general business.  In 1985, Joyce had a life-threatening accident
due to epilepsy, which caused an intracranial hemorrhage that required
subsequent brain surgery.  Against all odds, Joyce recovered from this
accident that left her with a 60 percent hearing loss in one ear and a
realization that she had epilepsy.  As a result of her personal
experience, she developed a passion for helping people with disabilities
and founded both companies.  Ms. Bender is the recipient of the 2003 New
Freedom Initiative Award from the Bush Administration, as well as the
1999 President's Award from President Clinton.
