Happy New Year from Dave and Rita and the Unlock the Waiting List Campaign! Best wishes to you and your family for a healthy and happy 2008!
With the legislative session starting this month, advocacy activity is about to be in full swing.
Here are just a few events for your calendar:
Two final Town Hall meetings will be held next week in Athens on the 7th and Roswell on the 8th. Please check the website for times and locations. Thanks to everyone who has come out to support the Town Halls. It is great to be able to meet parents and self advocates across the state who share a passion and enthusiasm for working for real community based options for people with disabilities.
February 13 is Legislative Day at the Capitol. This is an event that requires an RSVP. If you are interested in meeting with your legislator on the 13th regarding Unlock, please contact Rita for more information. If you can’t make the 13th but want to come another day, contact Joe.
February 21st is Disability Day at the Capitol sponsored by the Governor’s Council. Last year 1800 people came out to the rally at the Capitol.
