The independent living movement is a mean movement it's a you movement isn't everybody who lives with a disability I'm proud moment and you should make 2023 the Year that you decide to be more independent and Brave and Bold and that's what I'm going to talk about tonight.:-)!!

    The Dream Catchers Empowerment Zone

    The independent living movement, which is known to most as the IL movement but people often hear independent living and they think of living in a nursing home which is millions of miles away from what we teach and preach! Whether you have a disability and you work in what is called a sheltered workshop making what is called a sub minimum wage usually $1 per hour or less or at the bare minimum wage. Do you know what is a sheltered workshop? I used to volunteer at a sheltered workshop and I was literally offered $0.19 an hour for a job!

    Survivors First! - Dream Catchers Empowerment Zone - With Les Paul

    We are Survives First not a disability! For far to long we have often been put last while the professional's who earn the money from us climb the cooperate ladder later of success leave people with disabilities behind in the lurch and that is wrong!  A lot of Money has been made over a very long time that little if nothing ever went to us theSurvivors. Hey Im not hear to just talk bad about disability organizations but instead I will just say if the organization you voulanteer for or work at pays sub minimum wages then I have a problem with that because it shoulddnt be allowed here in America to pay below the minimum wages to anyone just becauuse they have a disablity.  Tonights topics include:  1. Huston weve got a problem 2. No more head games  3. Comunity Iclusion for all 4. Equal Rights for people with disabilitie are disability Rights 5. Your Dream is your reality MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!

Press #1 if you would like to speak to our guest speaker or myself the  host of Dream Catchers Les Paul Morgan People-first language People-first language, also called person-first language, is a type of linguistic prescription which puts a person before a diagnosis, describing what a person "has" rather than asserting what a person "is". It is intended to avoid marginalization or dehumanization when discussing people with a chronic illness or disability. It can be seen as a type of disability etiquette but person-first language can also be more generally applied to any group that would otherwise be defined or mentally categorized by a condition or trait.  National Domestic Violence Hotline 1-800-799-7233 Dream Catchers with Les Paul Morgan

    Dream Catchers - Politics Brain Drain and the Brain Pain - LesPaul Morgan

    Ok I Know being Civil while talking about politics is almost not an option but I believe no matter who we support we can all have our voice heard. Trump did not cause the Corona virus nor is he to blame for it but according to the media there is nothing he can do right yet I support his America first agenda and saving American jobs instead of Importing them away from the USA. Did you know that just before the pandemic hit American jobs & employment statists prove that he had the best employment records in America in over 50 years? Well he did in all categories and especially for people with disabilities. Ok I Know being Civil while talking about politics is almost not an option but I believe no matter who we support we can all have our voice heard. Trump did not cause the Tonight, I want people to be nice, Fair and Civil. I also want you to know I met last year with a major democratic leader about people with disabilities and issues such as the marriage penalty and he didn’t even want to talk about it and said he didn’t believe in helping with that issue so I was surprised to be told by a major democrat leader know I don’t care about people with disabilities issues. So, if you vote democratic for that reason it’s a lost cause! Anyway come on down to Dream Catchers tonight and sit a spell we will leave the lights on for you and chat for a while….

    Dream Catchers - ADA 30th Anniversary and to the next 30 years Les Paul

    Dream Catchers - ADA 30th Anniversary and to the next 30 years Les Paul I have had a disability for 36 years now which is much longer than not having one. I began volunteering to form a disability support group back in 1999. Was it hard yes, did I feel like giving up many times yes, are we ready to stand up for freedom and justice? Well we all should The Americans with Disabilities act turned 30 years old. It was big event that was heard around the World but isn’t now the time to make it Bigger Better and Bolder? Well yes in my option the signing of the ADA by then President George W Bush Senior was able to be done because advocates all across the USA came together and took a stand for equality and the right to live Independently as possible as he signed the ADA into law. I started volunteering with 2 powerful ladies who were also my mentors and teachers who also have disabilities to form a peer support group 22 years ago the Dream Catchers Now I say time it is to feel a hunger and a yearning for the freedom of equality and start working together again and bring new life and strength. Below are a few of the many links to Independence and Freedom I am going to speak about. The Past Present and Future of the Disability Rights movement and why we must keep on fighting for Freedom, justice and liberty for ALL!!!  https://adalegacy.org/history/ https://acl.gov/ada https://www.april-rural.org/ https://acl.gov/programs/aging-and-disability-networks/centers-independent-living https://ncil.org/ (The National Council on Independent Living)

    Dream Catchers - To much Detail/not enough love - with Les Paul Morgan

    Dream Catchers - To much Detail/not enough love - with Les Paul Morgan Its easy to forget the little or even very small changes we have to deal with when dealing with all the many nuances of a TBI, a Brain Aneurism, a Stroke that make things seam really big.  Heck that fits for many if not disabilities or as I like to say life’s little problems. For many people with a disability it often feels like “To much Detail not enough love” when it come to the survivors wants and needs the survivor not the parents or the Family should take over but try to help when asked and let the survivor figure out new ways to cope and restructure their lives in a much more inclusive and Independent way to fit their own needs. Come prepared to be blessed because if your feeling down and sad we’ve got room for that the Dream Catchers Table. Come on with me tonight and bring you thoughts and Ideas along with you too!

    Dream Catchers - Awakening your potential - LesPaul Morgan

    Dream Catchers - Awakening your potential - LesPaul Morgan I have to admit that sometimes its all I can do to get up and get out of bed when I am having a really bad migraine or cluster headache but I have always been a dreamer and I truly believe in the greater good of Humanity even in the darkest of Days or even when people said LesPaul give up. Stop trying so hard because there is no hope. You know what that’s when I found my inner Dream Catcher and that’s when I got mad enough and strong enough to start believing in my inner self to the point that it became outwardly visible that my life mattered and that there is a great hope in the future. If you feel like giving up I understand that because I’ve been their but I want to dare you to be different  that tomorrow can be better when you advocate for yourself and others that there is a better way to see plosive changes happen and begin to awaken your inner potential and become the best you that there has ever been!!!
