Who are we? - What do we do?
SPACECON/BraveHeart BBS/ISP has been both a Dial-Up and Internet-accessible meeting place and clearinghouse for information on Disability and Handicapped issues, with a concentration in the areas of Post-Polio-Syndrome (PPS) and other similar neurological disorders for a number of years.. It is a 12+ year old System, founded by Tom, a Polio Survivor and disAbilities Advocate at his local Church, that has supplied free interactive access to the Jobless, Elderly and Handicapped/Disabled community since 1988, and supplied totally free FULL Internet access to those in true need, and who will benefit spiritually, mentally, or otherwise from access to Job, Medical or Research information available on the Net. This activity is a spinoff component of Tom's disAbilities ministry. Loaner equipment, with our WCNAV Client Software installed, will be made available to those who cannot afford a computer with modem, and/or who need Word processing capabilities for resume's or the like.. There is NO charge for this service, of course, and many have helped... We WILL continue helping all of you who enjoyed the free-access, but we still have a slow line (56K) and "outlived" the technology to some extent, but not our usefulness! I will continue this aspect of my disAbilities Ministry from Our Saviour's Catholic Community and also concentrate my limited talents on-line with the growing Post-Polio awareness efforts.
We will still host the Brevard County "CSCKIDS" (Children's Service Council) List-Server for local City, County and State Community Service Organizations!
(Access by invitation only!)

If you are Home/Bed-Bound disAbled, Jobless, Senior, or other local similarly disadvantaged, or feel you otherwise qualify for free Net access through the many available "free" computers and "free" access programs supported through their advertisers, please contact Tom and I will try and set you up here and/or help set you up with some of the other "faster" free services, such as JUNO or NETZERO, etc.
