Daphne,

I didn't say I didn't want to be asked...I just said I was contacted

by her. There are personal reasons why I don't think I will be

asked...no conspiracy here.

I am in Partners in Poicymaking and the other parent I know is also.

I hope the council does form soon as well...

Ronnie,

I do care, this is why I posted the info. - in hopes it would at

least give a little confort in knowing they are looking for people to

fill the positions.

I don't have any inside info. as to why the appointments have not

been made.

I wish the council was up and running as well and I don't think the

republican party will be calling me for their poster child model

anytime soon!

,

Again, for what purpose would Amy, from the Governor's office, contact you

if it were not for either personal reasons or an autism related committee??

If you don't mind, please share... I never thought there was some type of

" conspiracy " ...by any means....I am just seeking information, like the rest

of us!!

I am familiar with the Partners in Policymaking...sent my application

several times...I'm from a much larger community than the Lake

/Clute/Freeport area....(where I use to live) and am already involved

in advocacy/support organizations & have been for years!!! Partners in

Policymaking wants individuals that have not been involved with an

advocacy/support organization or individuals with disabilities themselves...

But this doesn't have anything to do with the Governor's office, does it??

Again, just trying to gather knowledge...

Have a great day!!

Daphne
