Mothers and Daughters: Does Disability Make a Difference?

The Women's Center is seeking short essays and stories that highlight the mother-daughter relationship when the mother, the daughter or both have a disability. A selection of these articles will be used in an upcoming issue of The Newsletter and other publications of The Women's Center, a health care program for women with disabilities located in New York City.   We are inviting women of all ages who are mothers with disabilities, daughters with disabilities, or both to write articles 250 to 750 words in length that capture the essence of their mother/daughter relationships and consider whether and how the disability experience has influenced those relationships.

Submissions should be sent to the Newsletter editor, Harilyn Rousso, by email (hrousso@nyc.rr.com) or fax (212-673-4284). The deadline for submission is April 15, 2004.
