The federal government is planning to cut funding for programs that help people with developmental disabilities. If this happens, over 40,000 people in Ohio could lose important services that help them live safely and independently. What can you do? Tell your member of Congress to fully fund all disability programs at secure.everyaction.com/3m4Mh5xAbkWFUlgvKoQK_A2. Programs at risk include: 1. Disability Rights Ohio 2. The Ohio State University Nisonger Center 3. UC UCEDD (University of Cincinnati Center of Excellence in Developmental Disabilities) These programs have existed for over 50 years and are critical to protecting rights and supporting community living. Call the Congressional Switchboard to help you connect to offices at 202-224-3121.
