    Needing a van, How can I find out if there are any GRANTS out there in my favor?
    By Marcy   
    Hi my name is Marcy and im a 27 year old c-5 incomplete quad. When sitting in my powerchair, both my legs are straight out bc my left leg can not bend! Going out for a ride is pretty tricky, trying to get into a handicap van with the lift on the side and both legs straight out. My chair, the van and my legs get banged around while im trying to get in or out of the van. What I need is a van with a rear entry, but I cannot afford such an item. So what I am looking for is if there are any types of grants that may be floating around out there.

    I am a C5 complete quad and rehabed enough to do some part-time work and Vocational Rehabilitation of Florida was really great to me, helping with a Honda, Braun drop floor van with EMC hand controls.  So, if any of you plan on going back to work at all, most states through Voc/Rehab have some back to work incentives.
