The FAIR SHAKE NETWORK is an association of West Virginians dedicated to the belief that diversity makes our communities stronger. People with disabilities have the right to live, work, and play in their own homes and communities. The Fair Shake Network provides training and systems advocacy on issues affecting people with disabilities through statewide, grassroots, cross disability activities. Every year the network serves ice cream during the legislative session with the help of several volunteers. Special thanks to Paul Smith, FSN for providing students with community service.
