Join us for a community forum to discuss the future of Long Term Care in Dane County.

Wisconsin is changing the way Long Term Care Services are provided, and this could mean a big change for residents in Madison and the surrounding area.  Counties around the state are beginning  the transition to Family Care and IRIS,  two new programs that will change the way services are being provided to people with Developmental Disabilities, Physical Disabilities, and Frail Elders. Dane County will be making some big decisions soon.

July 26th, 2010 marks the 20th Anniversary of the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The ADA is the landmark legislation for people with disabilities that has laid a foundation of equality and rights for all people with disabilities. Thanks to the ADA, many people with disabilities have access to their state and local government’s programs and services, access to businesses of all types, access to public and private transportation, access to education and employment, access to telecommunication and media, and access to basic rights such as voting. We could go on, but you already realize the magnitude that the ADA has had on our everyday lives. That said, we also realize that the ADA is only the foundation, and that we have a long way to go to realize the dream of a fully inclusive society for all, regardless of disability. It is for these reasons that Access to Independence is excited to announce a day-long series of events marking the 20th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

 
 

We want to hear from you!  Come and learn what the State Plan for Independent Living will be for 2011-2013.
