wonderful thread!
I've thought of this question fairly often, although I do not have any direct experience recruiting women with special needs.
At one point when I was advising in this areas my fondest wish was to provide a American Sign Language translator for any woman attending recruitment that needed one.
I still think that would be a good idea during Recruitment. If something like that were provided it would be useful to highlight that information in a pre-rush packet or any advertisements. The other part is making sure all events are wheel-chair accessible. I know that past a certain year all buildings have had to adhere to a certain standard with regards to wheelchair accessibility but I wonder if all houses are able to accomodate wheelchairs with ease?
Those are two areas that I think as responsible Fraternity women we can ensure that we are casting the widest net possible during recruitment and hopefully recruiting women with various backgrounds and experiences.
Personally I can't wait to read other experiences and thoughts on this fabulous topic!
Thanks for posting this kappa2!!!
