For Clifornia residents - 1 week left to help save lanterman act services

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

I don't know if anyone has posted this yet, but I thought I would. Please take

a moment to click on the link so the regional centers cannot cut services

without our consent.

Here's what I got from the Arc:

Dear Friends,

We have one week left until the hearing on our bill to assure that people with

intellectual and other developmental disabilities can participate in planning

their own services.

If you haven't emailed the Senate Human Services Committee yet -- and asked your

friends to do the same -- now's the time. The committee assistant, Joy Traynor,

already has received hundreds, but I know we can get more.

Here's the earlier Action Alert. To send your email, scroll down to " Take

Action " :

http://capwiz.com/thearc/issues/alert/?alertid=15115556 & queueid=5312305991.

I almost never ask you to send one of these point-and-click advocacy emails. The

people who get them know they're easy, so unless we get large numbers, they're

worse than useless. For this one, we already have large numbers - please help us

add more.

And thank you for our advocacy.

Greg
