Please take 30secs and support this...
Happy 4th of July!
For hundreds of thousands of Americans with disabilities, freedom and independence are merely ellusive dreams…
Why?
Because they're trapped in nursing homes and other such facilities, against their will, simply because our society lacks the community supports to allow them to live normal lives! But there is an answer...
The Community Choice Act – S.799 and HR1621(links to info can be found in the action alerts below)
Back in May of 2007, the Senate Finance Committee promised disability community advocates that they would schedule a hearing to move this landmark legislation forward... they promised that this hearing will take place by the end of July... but nothing has been scheduled yet!
Please take a moment to encourage your delegation in both chambers to promote this legislation moving forward:
