***RALLY WITH US ON FRIDAY, MAY 31, 2024***
Please join us at 10am at 1350 Front Street, San Diego, CA 92101 as we rally to reject the Governor’s proposal to delay/cut $1 billion in funding for the development disability services system.
Together, we can make a difference!
We desperately need you to speak up and take action on a vital issue affecting the lives of people with developmental disabilities across California.
Governor Gavin Newsom has proposed to delay a $1 billion investment in critical supports and services for Californians with developmental disabilities.
The impact of delaying this desperately needed funding will be nothing short of a cut to services.
Californians with disabilities and the professionals who serve them deserve a chance to live full and equitable lives. Taking this action now can ensure access to the quality services that individuals with disabilities and their families rely on and deserve.
Join The Lanterman Coalition in urging the Legislature to reject the Governor’s proposal delaying $1 billion for the disability community, and make the investment on July 1, 2024, as promised.
Californians with disabilities and the professionals who serve them deserve a chance to live full and equitable lives. Thank you for your ongoing support and advocacy!
