Silver Cross www.silvercross.com helps you find recycled or new accessibility lifts and mobility devices that fit your budget. Depending on your needs they maybe able to help. There are several wheelchair foundations but I am unaware of any free car modification organization. I would also suggest contacting your local community action agency or local church to learn if they offer any grants to fullfil your need. These grants vary. You may find locating funding for readily available programs such as co-pay relief or energy assistance can offset the cost to afford purchasing the necessary modification you need. PAF case managers can explore if there are specific resources based on your particular diagnosis and location as well.

Unfortunately, I really just need to have my seat belt moved to the other side of my seat. I don't really thing there are any used ones out there. This is going to involve some body work. I just don't have the money for this. My disability is such an odd ball..
