Time for change

I am having severe pain in my right knee and it is causing significant hurdles in my writing process and getting out in the community. I powered through the pain and testified at the Minnesota House Human Services Policy Committee last Tuesday about Consumer Directed Community Supports (CDCS) legislation (House File 4568 and Senate File 4420). This issue is so important for my continued independence and I needed to be there no matter what.

Find my written testimony in my Time to Testify blog post and in the YouTube recording below. I’m still waiting to hear about the next House hearing and when it will be heard in the Senate. Please share my testimony or the YouTube recording about making sure CDCS is a viable, equitable option for people with disabilities. Make your voices heard!
