To the Editor,
There is a serious shortage of housing in Vermont. This limited housing pool is further reduced if you are among the many Vermonters who need housing that can architecturally accommodate a wheelchair, walker, cane, et cetera. A person with limited mobility from a sickness or a physical injury faces a real dilemma when looking for housing: Where do I find a place that doesn’t have stairs, where the doorways are wide enough, with a bathroom that I can use?
