Home & community-based services are essential for people with disabilities who want to live within their own community. It's critical Congress act swiftly to pass #BuildBackBetter with robust funding for #HCBS. Read our letter to leadership: https://t.co/fWqozXaIbG #CareCantWait
#PaidLeaveForAll is now back in the #BuildBackBetter package! Paid Leave is essential for people with disabilities and their families because no one should have to risk their economic security to provide care for a loved one. https://t.co/1m5QMDxdTS
This interview with Wanda Felty in @TulsaKids provides a good breakdown of OK's waiting list for developmental disability services. Wanda is considered one of Oklahomaโs leading experts in disability services and policy.

Qualifying for #HCBS is half the battle. The current funding allotment for these services offer unlivable wages that continue to strain an already struggling workforce. We need to #BuildBackBetter by giving direct support professionals the living wage they deserve!
