“I write not because I have the strength to write, but because I do not have the strength to remain silent.” — Rav Avraham Yitzchok Kook zt’l
I’m a 27 year-old disability rights and long-term care reform advocate, writer, seeker, helpmate, and just a guy now trying to explore the Big City.
I grew up in and around the Spring Hill College campus in Mobile, Alabama, where I studied from Fall 1998 when I entered at age 16, until 2005.ing I made a major impact with my two-year campaign to change Medicaid in Alabama, dubbed “Nick’s Crusade.” See my Wiki user profile for more. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:NickDupree
Since August 28, 2008, I’ve lived in New York City with my partner.
I am looking to attain success and happiness, finish my degree and find work helping others.
Where will I end up? Who will I meet? What will I learn and what new conclusions will I draw? Stay tuned to my blog to find out.
