From our Director.....
Hi everybody, hope you’ll be able to attend a town meeting being held in Anne Arundel County to discuss services to people with disabilities. Many of the service providers of AA County are putting the meeting together. We did this last year and it was very well-attended. One of the main topics to be discussed will be cuts to funding and what that means to individuals. This will be a good opportunity to speak to your elected officials and voice your thoughts/concerns. Thanks.
