Poetry Submissions Welcomed for "Perspectives 2"

Information on the "Perspectives 2" call for submissions.

The Perspectives series deals with poetry about various neurological, psychological, social and communicative disabilities, with a strong focus on the autism spectrum. Perspectives hopes that its poetry has, and will, continue to convey not only understanding, but unity and a sense that despite differing perspectives and different ways of living life, we are all human.

Last time around we received poetry from the disabled, their friends, their loved ones, service providers and others who have been personally affected by disability. On the tour, many more indicated their desire to get involved, so here's your chance! Don't miss it!
