(1) This is a general online petition to sign regarding the proposed budget cuts and impact on people with disabilities ---These will be huge cuts and will have a devastating impact if we do not stop them from happening. There is room for personal comments. Anyone in VT can sign.
Please sign today and enter your comments.
Here is a list of services currently provided to people with developmental disabilities. The current proposal doesn't give specifics of which program/service will be reduced if the cuts are implemented. However, there could be other rounds of cuts in the future. Not all services are in jeopardy as some are entitlements. There is a possibility of waiting lists for some of the programs we may already have or perhaps for budget cuts to transition services and adult developmental services. Even if you have a young child, any services lost now will be twice as difficult to get back in the future once they are gone.
Thank you,
Claudia Pringles, President
