PatchWorx.com is a nonprofit Web-based community for young people facing illness and disability. This is another great site generated for young people with disabilities in general to interact with other children facing the same social problems.
Supervised by adult volunteers, the PatchWorx Web site is a safe, secure online environment that encourages children to minimize the obstacles of distance and disability through computer-mediated communication. PatchWorx online activities include discussions through moderated chat, bulletin boards, member-submitted poetry and artwork, an e-mail listserv, online games and responses to questions from Patches, the site’s mascot.
