What a legend!

As we wrap up the week, let's not overlook some of our most vulnerable neighbors.

The I/DD community & their workforce deserve advocacy & support

Please join us in reminding lawmakers the importance of including the full 4% TII in the final NYS budget: https://t.co/upLE8Ilxwb

[Racker @RackerAgency]

Our message is clear: funding for the I/DD care system must keep pace w/demand. A full 4% TII is essential to sustain services, support staff, & ensure providers continue to meet needs of NYers w/ I/DD.

Tell your legislators to include the full 4% TII: https://t.co/upLE8Im5lJ

[Racker @RackerAgency]

I/DD providers face detrimental staffing shortages & rising operating costs.

A 4% TII in the final NYS budget would alleviate the burden on providers, staff, & the I/DD community.

We urge lawmakers to include the full 4% Tell them here: https://t.co/8VSEfEc4k9

We may see a final NYS budget as soon as this week - meaning the time to act is now. A full 4% TII is imperative to stabilize I/DD services, support the workforce, protect the progress already made.

Please remind our legislators to keep it up: https://t.co/upLE8Ilxwb
