"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: https://t.co/g5S5AMxH1F #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.

[Disability Scoop @disabilityscoop]

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. https://t.co/4cSudaCGMK #specialneeds

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!

[Disability Scoop @disabilityscoop]

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. https://t.co/pHvM7HsF4B #specialneeds

[Alpha Supported Living Services @Alpha_SLS]

Many of our clients rely on social safety nets like SNAP--we are happy to hear about the increase in benefits!

[NPR @NPR]

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. https://t.co/LZCheeEyyi #disabilities #specialneeds

[Alpha Supported Living Services @Alpha_SLS]

Thanks to the @WADeptHealth, many of our clients were able to receive priority access to the vaccine as early as December!
