Northern IL Info Sessions

If anyone would like to post these Northern IL Information Sessions

for the families to learn more about Managing the Art of Living a

new grant funded in Partnership with the IL Council on Developmental

Disabilities, I will post it here. These are for all of IL but it is

being rolled down the state. The next information meetings after

these in Highland Park and Rockford will be in March in Decatur.

Then Effingham after that. Happy New Year to All of you

www.managingtheartofliving.org Managing the Art of Living is a

project of the Illinois Council on Developmental Disabilities.

It offers Illinois self-advocates, families and friends the

opportunity to bring resources, authority and responsibility directly

into the hands of the people whose lives are most affected by the way

services are organized.
