The eight issues of Handi Helps presented in this document focus on specific issues of concern to the disabled, parents, and those working with the disabled. The two-page handi help fact sheets focus on the following topics: child abuse, leukemia, arthritis, Tourette Syndrome, hemophilia, the puppet program "Meet the New Kids on the Block" and dog guides. Each handi help provides basic information such as cause, diagnosis, symptoms, and treatment (in the case of diseases), specific suggestions for readers, and additional resources (such as organizations, books, and films). Brief informational items include use of puppets to teach children about handicaps, the decade of disabled persons, and guidelines for organizing a horseback riding program for disabled persons. (DB)
