Welcome to the EnableMe Community! We are your online forum around disabilities, chronic illness and mental health challenges. This space is for you to ask a question to a supportive community of peers and contribute responses based on your own experiences and knowledge. In this video, we will introduce the community to you!

2: Structure of the EnableMe Community

Once you have registered, you can see the home and landing page of the EnableMe Community. It should look like this.

...

• The ‘Community’ category is the one focused on the community exchange and socializing. Within the ‘Community’ category you will find subcategories such as Welcome Posts and Introductions, the Coffee Lounge to chat, the Search & Offer hub, as well as local community hubs, and editorial posts from the EnableMe Community Managers. If you have feedback for us, it will be most helpful to share in this category.

• Within the ‘Health’ category, you can scroll through or pose concrete questions about specific disabilities and chronic illnesses, to find disability- and illness-specific communities, posts, and tips. This includes separations between physical, sensory, psychosocial, and intellectual disabilities, as well as chronic illnesses, and assistive technology and therapy.

• The ‘Living’ category includes a variety of topics that cover the areas of life that may be affected by disability and illness. Here you can ask and answer questions about, for example, ‘job and profession’, ‘education’, ‘travel and mobility’, ‘relationships and sexuality’, and many more.

When you have posted a question and received comments, you will see that a question below the comments asks you: “Did this answer the question?” and your options to respond are “Yes” and “No”. Indicating “Yes” lets the community know that there was a good answer to your question, whereas indicating “No” lets the community know that you have not found a helpful answer to your question yet. Indicating this is helpful for other community members and the community moderators.
