Meet Vern Anderson, Founder of AbilityNews " title="Minimize">

Hi, my name is Vern Anderson. I am the owner and operator of AbilityNews, a monthly news publication and website designed by people with disabilities for people with disabilities. The Billings Gazette recently did a nice feature on me and my newsletter. Click here to read it.

For elementary school, I was involved in a program with Eastern Montana College (MSU-Billings) and then I went to high school at Billings West. After that I worked at PLUCK (Parents, Lets Unite for Kids.) I worked for DD Pack and then obtained employment in a job that was developed at MSU-B where I delivered sandwiches and other items on campus.

These jobs inspired me to start AbilityNews because I wanted to do something out of my home. AbilityNews is now on line at www.abilitynews.net and is located at 17 locations across Billings.

If you would like to submit an article for review and possible inclusion in the newspaper please send it in or on a disc. If you have any questions you can call me at 208-5354 or email at vern@AbilityNews.net
