I really enjoyed reading an NPR article about the Wounded Warrior project. The project provides modern, accessible housing for active-duty wounded veterans at Fort Belvoir, VA. Famous architect Michael Graves designed the homes and tapped in to his own experience in a wheel chair to design a functional and versatile home interior. It contains things like adjustable height counters and wide hallways. The Project is a wonderful program that should be expanded to give back to all of those veterans who have given so much of their freedom to protect ours.
