Direct Support Professionals are critical Missouri employees.

They deserve competitive wages, and their voices heard. The disability community is counting on your support. #NoMOdspCrisis #moleg #mobudget

[Starling @Starling_MO]

Supporting the budget proposal in Section 10.410 means support for the safety net in our community for Missouri’s most vulnerable citizens. #MOLeg funding for these vulnerable citizens is critical for supports to continue.

#Together we can make a difference. #CareCantWait

[Starling @Starling_MO]

#MOLeg please stand up for the disability community to ensure that providers serving people with I/DD can increase wages for our direct care staff working in your district.

As you know, the market around us is raising wages and we are unable to compete for quality employees.

[Starling @Starling_MO]

Providers across the state work hard to ensure Missourians w/ disabilities have the opportunity to work in a competitive, integrated setting as the first and preferred choice. These services are critical for integration & need your support #MOLeg. #EmploymentFirst

[Starling @Starling_MO]

Our direct care workforce is in a crisis, jeopardizing long-term supports for those in our communities with disabilities. #MOLeg Missouri's disability community is counting on you.

Support Medicaid HCBS funding because #CareCantWait https://t.co/i1rSiSFYuI

[Starling @Starling_MO]

Disability providers are drastically impacted by market conditions competing w/ other businesses. Providers are rate takers from you #MOLeg & cannot set their own rates. Your support allows the ability to retain quality staff, which means less turnover! #CareCantWait

"I believe lawmakers should support wage increases for caregivers. If you or a loved one someday needs this service, this too becomes your reality. Do not wait until that happens." #moleg #NoMOdspCrisis https://t.co/FXoYBB4qUX

Inclusion matters.

#MOLeg Be a difference maker.
