I have heard of DO-IT and used them a while back but have not revisited
recently.  We will check this out too!  And your group also.  Thanks a
lot for the help!

Marilyn,

I hope that this works out for you and your daughter.  There's also a
program out at the University Of Washington called the DO-IT Program,
which
is designed for high school students with a wide range of disabilities
who
are interested in attending college or vocational school beon completing
high school.  They also have a LISTSERV called DO-IT Pals, which is open
to
any high school student basically to receive mentoring on-line mainly
from
adults with disabilities who are attending college and/or working.
Their
web site  is http://www.washington.edu/doit/

Thanks,
Anthony

  daughter really just wants to "talk".  Finding friends will come with
  talk!

  I will report back on our review for the information of this group.

  Friends,

  Yesterday I was reading on here that some of you would like to belong
to
  LISTSERVs that are directed towards youth and young adults.  I did
some
  checking around and writing on other LISTSERVs that I belong to.
  Somebody
  e-mailed me names of two LISTSERVs and I wanted to pass them along to
  you.

  EastCoast-n-Disabled
  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/EastCoast-n-Disabled
  Geared toward people on the east coast of the US, but there are quite
  a few members from other areas.  This one isn't specifically targeted
  to young adults, but I think most of the members are fairly young.

  GimpGirl Community
  http://www.gimpgirl.com/lists/
  Geared toward young women with disabilities, there are actually four
  different lists here.

  Thanks,
  Anthony
