Adrion Garcia & Bella Gonzalez
Love is love, whether you live with a disability or not. However, those in interabled relationships face unique challenges that stem from within the relationship as well as from outside factors. These challenges can include finding a balance between needing care and being a reliable partner, as well as dealing with the financial limitations that governmental programs such as social security place on married couples.
In this program, three people with disabilities discuss their experiences with dating, intimacy, marriage and much more.
