HealthfulChat is dedicated to offering a support system for those who live with a physical disability or mobility issue. We are aware that there are millions of people worldwide living with the difficulties associated with limited mobility.HealthfulChat's philosophy is that there is power in numbers. We believe, along with the proper medical care, a caring support network can help someone facing difficulties get through their day. In order to provide this peer support network, we are offering you a Physical Disabilities/Mobility Issues Chat Room, physical disabilities/mobility disabilities forums, and a physical disabilities/mobility issues social network.

In the United States alone, there is not one state in the union that does not have a percentage of people living with a physical disability. Mississippi having the highest percentage, over 8%, Pennsylvania in the middle range with over 6%, and Hawaii in the low range with over 3%2 In Australia, over 2 million people under 65 years of age, and more than 1 million people over the age of 65 live with limited mobility3, and in the United Kingdom, more than 9 million people, approximately 15% of the population there have a disability of some kind.4
