DENVER, May 28, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- DSBO | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Disaboom, Inc. (OTCBB:DSBO) (www.disaboom.com), the leading online resource for people with disabilities, today announced that effective May 28, 2009, J.W. Roth will resign his position as Chairman of the Company's board of directors to assume a leadership role at another company. Disaboom co-founder Dr. J. Glen House has been appointed to serve as the new Chairman of the Company's board of directors.

"While Mr. Roth's contributions to the Company are many, he was essential to the formation and public listing process of Disaboom, Inc., he was absolutely crucial to our early-stage financing success, and his leadership and hard work were instrumental through the early development stages of our Company," states Dr. House, "and we wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors." Mr. Roth commented, "Disaboom is now transitioning to a new phase in its technical, product and business development, having recently launched a comprehensive site redesign effort. I am grateful for the opportunity to have worked on such an important initiative to the disability community, and I look forward to following Disaboom's future progress and success."

Dr. J. Glen House, Disaboom co-founder, previous board member, and currently Disaboom's Chief Medical Advisor, has been appointed the new Chairman of the Company's board of directors. Notes Disaboom CEO John Walpuck, "we're especially gratified to have Glen in this role because it will provide a valuable level of continuity between Disaboom's original vision, our interim learning experiences in recent months, and the future plans for site redesign and expansion currently underway."

A C7 quadriplegic since the age of 20, Dr. House is also the Medical Director of the Center for Neuro & Trauma Rehabilitation at Penrose Hospital in Colorado Springs, CO. He has had substantial experience with the medical technology industry, especially as it relates to assistive technologies. "I'm looking forward to taking a leadership role with the board, and helping to ensure that Disaboom reaches its fullest potential for both the disability community and our shareholders," says Dr. House. "The progress we've made so far has been substantial and sustainable. I believe the board has a unique opportunity to continue to support and influence this progress, and I look forward to now leading that effort going forward."
