PUBLIC POLICY
We tirelessly worked to advance the rights of individuals with disabilities across multiple local, state, & federal organizations.

- We promoted access, quality, and scope of Home and Community-based Services (HCBS).
- We promoted employment and economic stability for people with disabilities.
- We promoted access to benefits and resources.
- We promoted equity and nondiscrimination.
