On Sunday, December 3rd, the Philadelphia Inquirer and its partners Daily News and Philly.com printed a four-part series titled
"Falling Off the Cliff" - that addresses the crisis that
children with disabilities who are aging into adulthood and well beyond, and their families are facing and how the crisis will impact us all.
We are pleased to have Ronnie join us to share her experiences as she met people with disabilities, their families and the direct support professionals and shared a glimpse into their lives. Ms. Polaneczky will be joined by Nick Smith, a direct support professional who works at SPIN in Philadelphia and was prominently featured in the article. Nick will discuss the significance of his work in supporting dignified lives for people in their community and how direct support professionals can become more active in meaningful policy discussions for change.
Here's link to the four parts:
