When it doesn't make sense...

TAKE

ACTION!

ALL

COMMUNITY-BASED SERVICES ARE CURRENTLY AT RISK!

Conference Committee

members of the House and Senate have been named and are already working through

the budget differences of each chamber. There is

still time left to make a difference. Tell committee members to maintain

current services – it is up to YOU to help influence decisions

made!

CALL,

FAX or EMAIL THIS WEEK!

The message... INVEST

IN COMMUNITY!

consolidate & close State Supported Living Centers (Texas

Institutions)

develop a plan to assist in

consolidation and closure

NO CUTS to

community-based services. Utilize

“Rainy Day Funds” and find new money - close tax loop holes to

maintain current services

Make it clear… STOP THE

HYPOCRISY!!

State

Supported Living Centers are cash cows that provide state funded abuse and

neglect to a declining population

Funding

community-based services is a sound moral and fiscal decision

Conference Committee members…

Senator “Chuy” Hinojosa

Senator Jane

Senator Steve Ogden

Senator Tommy

Representative Myra Crownover

Representative Otto

Representative Jim Pitts

Representative Sylvester

Representative Zerwas

..

Independence from waiting. Freedom from institutions.
