waiting for services

PLEASE HELP US OUT BY FORWARDING THIS EMAIL ON TO OTHER INTERESTED PERSONS
AND POSTING IT ON APPROPRIATE LISTSERVS (INCLUDING THIS NOTICE)

HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF INDIVIDUALS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES ARE
WAITING FOR SERVICES

Hundreds of thousand of children and adults with developmental disabilities
are sitting at home with aging parents and guardians, losing school-taught
skills, while waiting for state and federal funding for services. Parents and
children are held “prisoner” in their current state of residence because to
move would require them to lose services or their place in a wait list, and
then have to start at the bottom in another state.

NOEWAIT – the National Organization to End the Waitlist, considers this a
disgrace. Parents and advocates from across the country are joining together
in a collaborative effort to bring national attention to waitlists and
service portability between states, and find national solutions.

Join with us as we develop coalitions among advocacy organizations and state
wait list campaigns in uniting our efforts through NOEWAIT to end waitlists
and gain portability of services.

We look forward to your response. Please email us at
_Noewait@Noewait.net_ (mailto:Noewait@Noewait.net) .

___ Yes, please place me on your NOEWAIT Email listserv. I want to keep
updated and learn more about solving this critical issue and how I can help.
