Fri. June 14 10am to 12pm

Do you have questions about or issues with the supports and services for people with intellectual disabilities and or autism (ID/A) in PA? Join us for our monthly chat with staff from the PA Office of Development Programs (ODP), the government office that oversees and funds those supports and services. People with ID/A in PA can speak up with ODP staff, and others are welcome to listen and learn. We start the calls reviewing the questions we already gathered and sent to ODP, then talk about them with ODP staff. After the ODP staff leave, you are invited to stay on for a bit while we discuss what we heard, and gather questions to send to ODP for next month. Please send questions to christine@sau1.org by June 6.
