Protecting Services for People with Disabilities
“I'm proud of our work at ICI. For more than 40 years, we've helped create a Minnesota where people with disabilities are supported to live, learn, work, and thrive.” – Amy Hewitt, ICI Director.
Please call your U.S. senators and representatives to protect disability funding—no cuts to the Developmental Disabilities Act programs, Medicaid, autism and IDD research, and professional development programs. We cannot go back to institutions. This isn't someone else's fight. It's everyone's fight. Use 5calls.org to reach your congressperson.
