If you are interviewing an individual who is connected to the disability area you addressed in your research review, you may use those articles to integrate into the interview paper.

Proceed with the interview: 1. Ask background information to begin. How old, where goes to school, who friends are, what likes to do best. 2. Now can you tell me about DISABILITY.

Do you get any help for your DISABILITY? Explore: i. School services ii. Doctors or therapists iii. Medications iv. What is the most helpful thing people can do? 3.
