New York Times, National, Monday October 7, 1991

PHOTO by Phelan M Ebenack for the New York Times: A mass of people in wheelchairs and standing work to get through police barricades and tables set sideways as barricades. In the center top Carolyn Long looks down at a protester. To her left two standing men struggle over a barrier. To her right and in front, on the far right a woman stands in an ADAPT shirt, and beside her a woman in white shorts (Babs Johnson) stands behind an older man in a scooter (Ben?) A second scooter is just visible behind him. In front of them in the center of the picture a woman with some of her hair missing (Karen Greebon) is making a power fist in her electric wheelchair. In the foreground three people in wheelchairs struggle with a table barricade; Doug Chastain is in the middle, the other two are looking away from the camera.
The caption reads: Advocates for the Disabled Protest At Nursing Home Convention. More than 300 advocates for the disabled yesterday stormed a hotel in Orlando, Fla., where representatives of the nursing home industry were holding a convention. Some wheelchair-bound demonstrators tried to break through barricades; 50 were arrested on charges of trespassing. The protest was part of a campaign to redirect Federal money toward in-home care and away from nursing homes.
