Guest guest Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 There are those days that you know advocacy and networking truly work because you see the results immediately. Systematic change is important and is the core for making a difference in the future; however, ever so often an immediate reward of knowledge that you made a difference is undeniably and instantly gratifying. It took awhile; political walls were strong and intolerant BUT because you took the time to call the powers that be, a disabled child can participate in an appropriate therapeutic program instead of being locked away from sunshine for several years and without appropriate therapy to address significant needs. Of the many stringent requirements set forth in an order from the judge, the most cruel and unusual order has been lifted- THANKS TO ALL OF YOU who stepped up to the plate when asked. can now go outside. can participate in outside therapeutic programs and as a result is involved in a strong therapeutic program which addresses such issues as significant sensory integration deficits. He is keenly aware that parents of children with disabilities stepped in on his behalf and fought for him.
