GimpGirl is a community of women with disabilities that comes together to share their lives in a safe space focused on their strengths rather than disabilities. It has grown over the years into a collective of hundreds of members dedicated to peer counseling and advocacy with a DIY spirit. Members participate across multiple social media platforms mostly in English and from different countries. The GimpGirl Twitter account was founded in 2007 and has over 1,000 followers to communicate with women with disabilities and allies daily by announcing events and sharing disability-related information.
