This is a site geared towards people with disabilities (and their families). They may range in age and technical abilities, so it is important to make the site as user friendly/intuitive as possible.
Right now, the site's nav is disjointed, the accessibility is minimal. In order to build an online community, users should register, create a profile, and immediately be offered instructions on what the site has to offer and recommendations for others to connect with.
