Students with physical disabilities can spend the summer climbing trees

oooh, maggie, love ya, but don’t say “wheelchair bound” - what, like they are duct taped in there? can’t get out? defined by their use of an enabling device? - go with “wheelchair user”

This is really good info, so I’m glad you shared, thank you.

Thanks for the heads up! My apologies. Is “people in wheelchairs” better? What’s a good way to say this?

“Wheelchair user” is short and OK. Thorough exposition in this Assoc of University Centers on Disabilities article Portrayal of People With Disabilities.
