🌟 Celebrating Champions! 🌟

We had the honor of attending the Network on Disabilities' Breakfast for Champions—a heartfelt celebration recognizing individuals who inspire us all.

We were proud to join this event alongside some of our very own “Champions”—individuals we’ve had the privilege to support on their journey. It was a beautiful morning filled with strength, pride, and inclusion.

💙 To our Champions: Your determination moves us. Your stories empower us. And your achievements remind us why we do what we do.

Medicaid is a lifeline for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD), funding critical support for daily living, independence, and employment.

Now, Congress is about to vote on a bill that would slash over $700 billion from health care—including Medicaid. These cuts would devastate the services our community relies on.

✊ To take action now, follow the link and tell Congress to protect Medicaid.
