March 6th will be our Family Advocacy Program activity

[Guest guest]

Thanks to all of you who called, emailed, or faxed

the Governor's office on the 10% Solution. We have received feedback that

the influx of calls and emails on this issue got his staff talking about the

waiting list. This is great because it really lays the groundwork for all

our activities around this issue from now until July.

It looks like March 6th will be our Family Advocacy Program activity this

year and will be focused entirely on the waiting list issue. The details of

the day have not yet been firmed up, but please let me know if you will be

able to attend. Being a presence at the State House will be an important

way to show how much we care about this issue and who it impacts, so I

encourage you to be there and bring your loved one with you. Again, please

let me know by Friday, February 8th if you will be able to attend. If you

have any questions or need some assistance in order to attend, please don't

hesitate to contact me.
