We're seeking advocates to come to the Capitol during the upcoming legislative session (January, February, March 2009) to talk with senators & representatives about funding DD waivers (the former MRWP & ICWP waivers). We will provide you with a how to do it lesson and our eternal thanks. With a very constricted state budget looming it's more important than ever to talk with as many legislators as possible to impress upon them the priority need for this funding. If you can spare half a day, a whole day or a "mom day," we could use your help!
Please contact Rita Haggerty at haggertyr@earthlink.net or 404-405-5855 to volunteer.
