"Adults with #DevelopmentalDisabilities have been excluded from budget forecasts for so long we don't even know how many people need services now or in the future." A powerful op-ed from @ArcofWA leader Stacy Dym: tinyurl.com/2p883j8v #DisabilityRights #disabilityjustice
This is fantastic! ABLE accounts are a great way for people with disabilities and their loved ones to ensure they will have enough money to cover the cost of relevant expenses without risking losing government benefits.
For the first time in four years, the amount of money that people with #disabilities can save without jeopardizing eligibility for government benefits is rising. disabilityscoop.com/2022/01/… #specialneeds

Sept. 12-18 is Direct Support Professionals Week. We celebrate the DSPs who compassionately support people with disabilities. #dspappreciationweek2021 #DSPWeek #DSPRW2021
When COVID-19 vaccines were authorized in December 2020, our agency was granted access in priority group 1a--allowing us to provide vaccines to our clients that same month!
Amid heightened concerns about #COVID19 as the delta variant spreads across the nation, new federal data indicates that adults with #disabilities are less likely than others to be #vaccinated. disabilityscoop.com/2021/08/… #specialneeds
Many of our clients rely on social safety nets like SNAP--we are happy to hear about the increase in benefits!
The Biden administration approved a 25% increase in the levels of food stamp assistance available to needy families — the largest single increase in SNAP's history, which will be available to all 42 million beneficiaries.

The #pandemic has exacerbated an existing shortage of direct support professionals, forcing family caregivers to pick up the slack and some disability providers to close their doors. disabilityscoop.com/2021/07/… #disabilities #specialneeds
Thanks to the @WADeptHealth, many of our clients were able to receive priority access to the vaccine as early as December!
As of today over 8 million #COVID19 vaccine doses have been administered in WA! 🙌We're grateful for healthcare workers, volunteers & everyone who is getting vaccinated. It's never too late to vaccinate! Find a provider near you at VaccineLocator.doh.wa.gov or call 833-VAX-HELP.
