YOU'RE INVITED !!

Westchester Disabled On the Move (WDOM), a leading advocate for people with disabilities, will honor Westchester County Legislator Nancy Barr, among other supporters, at its annual celebration at Rye Town Park on July 10.

Dozens of people with disabilities, advocates, and others are expected to attend the event held each year to celebrate the work of organizations that support the disabled community and to highlight the accomplishments of WDOM.

“Nancy Barr has been an incredible advocate for people with disabilities and has helped WDOM obtain funding to allow us to continue our work, making sure that people, no matter what obstacles they face, can lead independent lives in their home communities,’’ said Maria Samuels, Executive Director of Westchester Disabled On the Move. “We are excited to be able to recognize Nancy, as well as some of our most loyal supporters at our Annual Meeting.’’
